Roumanian	A
	-
	-
When winter trees bestrew the path	B
Still to the twig a leaf or twain	A
Will cling and weep not Winter's wrath	B
But that foreknown forlorner pain	A
To fall when green leaves come again	A
	-
I watch'd him sleep by the furrow	C
The first that fell in the fight	D
His grave they would dig to morrow	C
The battle called them to night	D
	-
They bore him aside to the trees there	E
By his undigg'd grave content	F
To lie on his back at ease there	E
And hark how the battle went	F
	-
The battle went by the village	G
And back through the night were borne	A
Far cries of murder and pillage	H
With smoke from the standing corn	A
	-
But when they came on the morrow	C
They talk'd not over their task	I
As he listen'd there by the furrow	C
For the dead mouth could not ask	I
	-
How went the battle my brothers	J
But that he will never know	C
For his mouth the red earth smothers	J
As they shoulder their spades and go	C
	-
Yet he cannot sleep thereunder	C
But ever must toss and turn	A
How went the battle I wonder	C
And that he will never learn	A
	-
When winter trees bestrew the path	B
Still to the twig a leaf or twain	A
Will cling and weep not Winter's wrath	B
But that foreknown forlorner pain	A
To fall when green leaves come again	A
