The Ode of Remembrance is an ode taken from Laurence Binyon's For the Fallen, first published in September 1914 to honour the British casualties of the First World War. The Ode of Remembrance is regularly recited at memorial services held on days commemorating World War I, such as ANZAC Day.

They went with songs to the battle, they were young.
Straight of limb, true of eyes, steady and aglow.
They were staunch to the end against odds uncounted,
They fell with their faces to the foe.

They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.
