I believe its called 'An Irish AIrmen Foresees His Death', by WB Yeats. It goes
"I know now I shall meet my fate
Somewhere among the clouds above
Those I fight I do not hate
Those i guard I do not love
My country is Kiltartan's Cross
My countrymen Kiltartan's poor
No likely end could bring them loss
Or leave them happier than before
I weighed up all, brought all to mind
the years to come seemed waste of breath
A waste of breath the years behind
In balance with this life, this death".
I know it off by heart :-)
