This verse is recited every Friday night at 9pm at Returned Servicemens' Associations (RSA) - equivalent to the British Royal Legion. It is also used at funerals for those associated and other times of importance.

May we indeed remember the lives lost then and now.

They shall not grow old as we who are left grow old,
Age shall not wither them nor the years condemn;
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We shall remember them.
