Notes

At the rising of the sun and at its going down 1
We remember them. 2
At the blowing of the wind and in the chill of winter 3
We remember them. 4
At the opening of the buds and in the rebirth of spring 5
We remember them. 6
At the blueness of the skies and in the warmth of summer 7
We remember them. 8
At the rustling of the leaves and in the beauty of autumn 9
We remember them. 10
At the beginning of the year and when it ends 11
We remember them. 12
As long as we live, they too will live; 13
for they are now a part of us 14
as we remember them. 15
When we are weary and in need of strength 16
We remember them. 17
When we are lost and sick at heart 18
We remember them. 19
When we have joy we crave to share 20
We remember them. 21
When we have decisions that are difficult to make 22
We remember them. 23
When we have achievements that are based on theirs 24
We remember them. 25
As long as we live, they too will live; 26
for they are now a part of us 27
as we remember them. 28

Never shall I forget that night, the first night in 1
camp, that turned my life into one long night 2
seven times sealed. 3
Never shall I forget that smoke. 4
Never shall I forget the small faces of the 5
children whose bodies I saw transformed into 6
smoke under a silent sky. 7
Never shall I forget those flames that consumed 8
my faith for ever. 9
Never shall I forget the nocturnal silence that 10
deprived me for all eternity of the desire to live. 11
Never shall I forget those moments that 12
murdered my God and my soul and turned my 13
dreams to ashes. 14
Never shall I forget those things, even were I 15
condemned to live 16
as long as God Himself. 17
Never. 18
