[Colonel Briedis]
Fridrihs Briedis (1888.-1918) - viens no izcilakajiem
Latviesu strelnieku virsniekiem, kurs, vel dzivs budams,
Kluva par legendu, ar savu piemeru iedvesmodams citus.
Kad sirmajai tevzemei gruti klajas
Tu pirmais biji, kurs celas kajas
Pirmais strelnieku rindas stajies
Tev dublainas transejas kluva par majam
Viskarstaka cinina
Ar mirdzosu virsnieka zobenu roka
Pirmais tu biji, kas traucas
Cauri lozu un granatu ugunu lokiem
Pulkvedi Briedi - saviem kareivjiem labakais piemers
Drosi tie gaja tev pakal vienmer
Pulkvedi Briedi - tu turpini dzivot ari pec naves
Un senajiem virsaisiem lidzas tagad tu stavi
Bez bailem tu raudzijies navei acis
Vienalga tev bija, ko vesture sacis
Jo ne jau par ordeniem, caru vai slavu
Tu cinijies tikai par tevzemi savu
Aiz kareivju muguram platam
Neslepies bailigs
Jo tikai niknakas kaujas virpuli
Spej justies patiesi tu laimigs
Kad asins, zeme un ugunis skist
Kad lozu lietus uz cilvekiem list
Kad lielakas bailes parvaret nakas
Tur tikai ista dzive tev sakas
