tim graham - joaquin miller - the bravest battle lyrics
the bravest battle that ever was fought!
shall i tell you where and when?
on the maps of the world you will find it not;
’twas fought by the mothers of men
nay not with the cannon of battle+shot
with a sword or n0ble pen;
nay, not with eloquent words or thought
from mouth of wonderful men!
but deep in a walled+up woman’s heart +
of a woman that would not yield
but bravely, silently bore her part +
lo, there is the battlefield!
no marshalling troops, no bivouac song
no banner to gleam and wave;
but oh! those battles, they last so long +
from babyhood to the grave
yеt, faithful still as a bridge of stars
she fights in her wallеd+up town +
fights on and on in her endless wars
then silent, unseen, goes down
oh, ye with banners and battle+shot
and soldiers to shout and paise!
i tell you the kingliest victories fought
were fought in those silent ways
o spotless woman in a world of shame
with splendid and silent scorn
go back to god as white as you came +
the kingliest warrior born!
