| Notes | This is a short lyric poem, commemorating the Irish soldiers heading off to their peacekeeping mission in the Lebanon, 1978. The speaker of the poem reminds the departing soldiers of their duty to not fight if possible, and to guide the destitute Lebanese people towards peace, providing them with some respite from the eternal fighting. |
