"When the Lilies Bloom in France Again" is a World War I era song released in 1918.
It was published by Walter Jacobs of New York City and Boston, Massachusetts.
[3] The song uses nature as a metaphor to assure listeners of hope and that everything will be restored at the end of the war.
The song starts by describing lilies growing and birds singing in France.
This scenery is now bare, but "the flowers will bloom again, That's a part of every soldier's vow."
