The postman knocked and waited
邮递员敲门等待着
For her sweet face to appear
等待她甜美的脸庞出现
A face that showed her heart was full of joy
脸上的表情表明她的心充满了喜悦
In the cottage doorway smiling through her tears
在村舍门口她含泪微笑着
Each time he brought a message from her boy
每次他都带着她男友的口信
Her calloused hands were trembling
她布满老茧的双手在颤抖
The postman noticed too

That her sweet and anxious face was white

Would this be the letter

That she had waited for

And would it tell her that he was alright

I'm sorry said the postman

I must ask you to sign

This little book that I have brought along

You see this letter's registered

He slowly bowed his head

And then she knew that there was something wrong

The address on the corner

Of this envelope of blue

Told her that her darling son was dead

Where Jimmys name and number

Had always been before

Dear God they've made my darling's grave

Thou' knowest of his soul

She prays a humble prayer to God each night

Place on his grave a blooming rose

So all the world can see
