A Soldier

I always salute you for the work you do,

I always salute you for placing the nation before you,

         You are a soldier, who will never quail,

         You are a soldier, who will never fail,

You stand on the border, in highs and lows,

You stand for us, against enemies and foes,

         Seasons change from heavy snow to scorching sun,

         You still stand tall, very stiff and stern,

For our nation, you give your heart and soul,

For you, even glittering gold is a dark black coal.

          I always salute you for the work you do,

          I always salute you for placing the nation before you.

---- A salute
