We'll soon be parting, shipmates For, to the front you go To guard Old England's honour And smash oar boorish foe. Where ere the fight be thickest May. your, battle cry resound, Avenge your fallen comrades And make your name resound Wherever we are roaming Be it by land or sea, Our thoughts will always follow And our hearts will be with thee. Farewell our Third Contingent With brave hearts such as you, ' Be all the world against her England will see it through. The God of battle holds you In the hollow of his hand, May He; as victors, guard you Back to the dear homeland. / A.J.T.
