A SHROPSHIRE LAD
Or come you home of Monday
When Ludlow market hums
And Ludlow chimes are playing
'The conquering hero comes,'
When Ludlow market hums
And Ludlow chimes are playing
'The conquering hero comes,'
Come you home a hero,
Or come not home at all,
The lads you leave will mind you
Till Ludlow tower shall fall.
Or come not home at all,
The lads you leave will mind you
Till Ludlow tower shall fall.
And you will list the bugle
That blows in lands of morn,
And make the foes of England
Be sorry you were born.
That blows in lands of morn,
And make the foes of England
Be sorry you were born.
And you till trump of doomsday
On lands of morn may lie,
And make the hearts of comrades
Be heavy where you die.
On lands of morn may lie,
And make the hearts of comrades
Be heavy where you die.
