Do not stand at my pyre and weep.... I am not there, I do not burn. I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glints on the snow. I am the sunlight on the ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awake in the morning hush, I am the swift uplifting rush of the quiet birds in circling flight. I am the soft star shining at night... Do not stand at my pyre and cry... I am not there, I did not die.

What will the burial of my body be?

The pouring of a sacred cup of wine

Into the tender mouth of the earth

And making my dear sweet lover laugh

One more time.
