Lyrics:
Men of Harlech stop your dreaming
Can’t you see their spear points gleaming
See their warrior pennants streaming
To this battlefield
Men of Harlech stand ye steady
It cannot be ever said ye
For the battle were not ready
Welshmen never yield
From the hills rebounding
Let these war cries sounding
Summon all at Cambria’s call
The mighty force surrounding
Men of Harlech on to glory
This will ever be your story
Keep these burning words before ye
Welshmen will not yield

The wordsmith has never been to Nantucket.
Ahhhh.. one of my favorite films and Caine is excellent in it… It stands up well to time. ” Volley fire by rank…… FIRE! ” Awesome…
Hold them. Hooold them!
This is going to hurt you a lot more then it will me, I’m happy to say.
A great film.
