Weep No Sad Tears For Me
Weep no sad tears for me
when the last warm breath from this body leaves.
Rejoice instead that I'm forever free
from worry or pain. So, please, no one grieves.
Remember me as once in younger years.
No tears, no sad tears.
Make me not fear my death will make you sad
for this would be the last thing I desire.
Fondly recall the best of times we had.
Fulfil your dreams and all that you aspire
with wonderful work that inspires your peers.
No tears, no sad tears.
Talent too long under a bushel hid
kept a secret because one never dared
reveal it to the waiting world and bid
them marvel at the special bond we shared.
For I'll be with you to dispel your fears.
No tears, no sad tears.
