Suddenly, a cloud of dust; suddenly the wind rose,
And there's a shadow on the ground, and it's approaching, loud.
"We're saved, they are coming!" cried the wounded man.
But heard not a word from the medic
"My brother, my brother!" cried the wounded man.
Across the river, the reeds rustle.
My brother, my brother!
My brother, my brother!
My brother!!!
- The last verse of the song
