A fireman will go into extreme fires to rescue and save. 
When one dies, it is hard to find the words to give thanks for what he gave. 
Here, so many died at such an enormous cost, 
that a whole nation weeps for what we have lost.

19 white hearses
Stop traffic on all sides
As a nation nurses
Pain at the loss and sighs

The call of a hero
Knows no secure bounds
The cry of the inferno
Screamed upon the grounds

Yet, one, for his children
Saved a sign of his love
Of something he had taught them
"Be Good"  for God above
