"Now the sun shines down on the green fields of France
 a warm summer wind makes the red poppys dance
 The trenches have vanished under the plows,
 there's no gas no barbed wire, there's no guns firing now
 but here in this graveyard it's still No Man's land,
 the countless white crosses stand mute in the sand
 for man's blind indifference to his fellow man,
 to a whole generation that was butchered and damned"

  -- from "No Man's Land" (aka "The Green Fields of France", aka "Willie McBride"), by Eric Bogle
