Mametz Wood by M. Antinao

Miguel Antinao has created a song based on Mametz Wood, in his song, he takes the place of one of the soldiers in the battle.

Song lyrics:

"Always Together"

There was a time when we were young,
When it ws not allowed to run
Across the fields, facing the sky
Towards the wood , we walked in lines.

Always together,
Always together.

We tended this land with our blood,
With our tears falling down.
Time passes by, nobody knows
That we are hidden underground.

Always together,
Always together.

Years afterwards into the farms,
Working the sharp metal arms,
Harvest the war, touchable skins
The precious golden skeletons.

Always together,
Always together.

They were unknown , all our names
But it was opened, our grave.
Lights in the eyes, facing the sky
We sang this song about our lives.

Always together,
Always together.
