Depar ure' Leave we must our homeland, our loves, And all things that are great. As all the tears are shed And the last good-byes are said, We now depart. We leave not of desire but of need . Our country calls and we must gog To a land so far away - a land that ls torn by war, hate and fear. Cry' not our loves. We shall return when peace once again prevailsg When freedom rings throughout the lands. Then no more shall we go forth. 16' Cl IA 5. Davis.
