Text: To Constantinople. Britannia called, and swift ere the trumpets echoes died away, / The gathering forces of her children marched in stern array, / From Ice-bound shores and India’s burning strand, / From wave-tipped Isles and Austal’s sunny land, / To do or die they came, Brave Heroes of the Dardanelles.
