Loose translation from Catalan of Lluis Llach's great song Abril 74. Check out the original:

///
Comrades if you should know where lies the silver moon
go tell her that I want to meet her
but cannot
cos duty keeps me here
Comrades, you that hear the sirens
as they sing out there across the waves
I yearn to join you
but duty keeps me here
And if my fate it be
to fall in this war
take all of my songs
and branch of blossoms red
and bring them to
who I love and always will
Comrades, if you remember the days when we were free
it's with you I want to be
that's why I took up arms and left my family

Very nice playing though, have you ever done "Everybody Knows" by Leonard Cohen?
