Weep not for me though I am gone
Into that gentle night
Grieve if you will, but not for long
Upon my soul’s sweet flight
I am at peace, my soul is at rest
There is no need for tears
For with your love I was so blessed
For all those many years
There is no pain, I suffer not,
The fear now all is gone
Put now these things out of your thoughts,
In your memory I live on
Remember not my fight for breath
Remember not the strife
Please do not dwell upon my death
But celebrate my life.
