Lyrics 1. Where the foremost flag was flying Pierce'd by many a shot and shell Where the bravest men were dying There our gallant captain fell "Boys! you follow now another Follow till the foe shall yield" Then he whispered, "Tell my mother Stephen died upon the field" "Mother!" "Mother!" "Stephen died upon the field" 2. Through the battle they bore him But his words were growing wild Heeding not the scenes before him Stephen was once more a child "Ah, she comes! there is no other Speaks my name with such a joy Press me to your bosom, mother Call me still your darling joy" "Mother!" "Mother!" "Call me still your darling joy" 3. Men who were not used to weeping Turned aside to hide a tear When they saw the pallor creeping That assured them death was near Kindly as he were a brother Strangers caught his parting breath Laden with the murmur "Mother" Last upon his lips in death "Mother!" "Mother!" Last upon his lips in death -------------------------------------------------------------------
