Breaking Of The Sword Lyrics - Loreena Mckennitt

On a sunny April morning 

My dear son, you were born 

Until one day you called away 

And from my heart was torn 

 

As a boy you knew the stables 

As a lad you knew the fields 

My son you worked beside me 

But to a country you must yield 

 

[refrain] 

You were called to serve the country 

You were called to serve the king 

And from our home you left one day 

And of this today I sing

When I stood there at the station 

And our eyes one last time met 

It was at that moment my dear son 

'Tis that I'll never forget 

 

Is it now a mother's blessing 

That the country's truly free? 

You gave your life for all of us 

And to all humanity 

 

[instrumental] 

 

As I stand here at your grave side 

The spring birds sing their song 

My child I love you more and more 

And will my whole life long

You were called to serve the country 

You were called to serve the king 

And from our home you left one day 

And of this today we sing
