Lyrics
English: Men of war, please spare my lover and all other / Young boys like him, let there be peace, eternally / Don't take my lover away from me, although my / Love will keep him brave, don't send him to a early / Grave, men of war, I love him so, he's always been / My shinning star, his heart is mine...man of war
