Disgrifiadau

Dyddiad: 1 Mehefin 1918

Trawsysgrif:

PULL YOUR WEIGHT.

The billows are heaving behind,
The breakers are foaming before;
We need all the strength we can find—
Each ounce you can put to an oar.
Are you doing the best that you can
To keep the old galley afloat?
Are you power or freight?
Are you pulling your weight—
Are you pulling your weight in the boat?

It isn't the !task of the few—
The pick of the brave and the strong;
It's he and it's I and it's you
Must drive the good vessel along
Will you save? Will you work? Will you i fight?
Are you ready to take off your coat?
Are you serving the State?
Are you pulling your weight—
Are you pulling your weight in the boat?
