DEDICATED BY
THE MONTREAL EMPLOYEES
OF THE
BELL TELEPHONE COMPANY OF CANADA
IN HONOUR OF
THEIR COMRADES WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES AND OF
THE TWO HUNDRED WHO SERVED IN THE GREAT WAR.

IN FLANDERS FIELDS WHERE POPPIES BLOW
BETWEEN THE CROSSES ROW ON ROW.
THAT MARK OUR PLACE
AND IN THE SKY
THE LARKS, STILL BRAVELY SINGING, FLY
SCARCE HEARD AMID THE GUNS BELOW

WE ARE THE DEAD. SHORT DAYS AGO
WE LIVED. FELT DAWN. SAW SUNSET GLOW.
LOVED AND WERE LOVED AND NOW WE LIE.
IN FLANDERS FIELDS.

TAKE UP OUR QUARREL WITH THE FOE
TO YOU FORM FAILING HANDS WE THROW
THE TORCH
BE YOURS TO HOLD IT HIGH
IF YE BREAK FAITH WITH US WHO DIE.
WE SHALL NOT SLEEP, THOUGH POPPIES GROW
IN FLANDERS FIELDS.
