Does this strike you as still applicable ?

Question

I was re reading a book of my brother's and found this on the title page.
" Adieu, the years are a broken song
And right grows weak in the fight with wrong.
The lillies of love have a crimson stain
And the old days never will come again"
This was from the diary of a WW1 Australian Soldier. Are the sentiments still accurate?
In need of reassurance, Rose P.
PS, the book is "The Broken Years" by Bill GammIge. RP.

Answer 1

This is a lovely poem and could be used in any time frame, not just during war. ◄

Answer 2

i could translate this poem like this: "Adieu, the years are a broken song And suitable grows susceptible interior the combat with incorrect" The years are a broken song could recommend time keeps repeating itself, and the combat with incorrect is the conflict. So, the guy is asserting the years are the comparable many times with a conflict it is growing to be no menaing for suitable and incorrect anymore. "The lillies of love have a pink stain And the previous days never will come back" basically the pink stain is bloodshed and the previous days meaning previous age/destiny. So, with each and every of the bloodshed, the opportunities of seeing previous age are narrow. I dunno.....
