This stanza, commonly known as "The Ode", is engraved on cenotaphs throughout Canada:

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

--- From "For the Fallen" by Laurence Binyon
