On Normandy’s shore where courage was found,
Eighty years past, where brave hearts abound.
June’s dawn broke with a somber might,
As heroes rose to reclaim the night.
The waves whispered tales of sacrifice and pain,
Of lives intertwined in freedom’s refrain.
Sand stained with the price they paid,
In silent homage, our heads are laid.
Their footsteps echo through time’s vast sea,
A legacy of valor, of souls set free.
In fields of Normandy, where poppies grow,
We remember their names, their stories in tow.
For each brave heart that stormed the gate,
Their memory endures, in hearts they await.
Eighty years on, we still recall,
Their gift of freedom, their noble call.
