THE ODE TO THE FALLEN “For the Fallen,” a poem composed by English poet Laurence Binyon in September 1914 mourns the fallen soldiers of England in World War 1. It encapsulates their sacrifice and the enduring memory they leave behind. It is one of the most famous and enduring war poems, written at a historic moment, just after the retreat from Mons and the victory of the Marne. The fourth stanza, "They Shall Grow Not Old" was written first and dictated the rhythmical movement of the whole poem.

For the Fallen by Laurence Binyon With proud thanksgiving, a mother for her children, England mourns for her dead across the sea. Flesh of her flesh they were, spirit of her spirit, Fallen in the cause of the free. Solemn the drums thrill; Death august and royal Sings sorrow up into immortal spheres, There is music in the midst of desolation And a glory that shines upon our tears.
