Remember me in your heart,
For I will soon be gone,
It's time for me to depart,
You will not find me in the dawn.

Do not fill yourself with sadness,
With those salty tears,
But rejoice with gladness,
We have been together for years.

Do not collapse, sit there and cry,
Looking at my photos on the wall.
For every green leaf has to dry,
Before they begin to fall.

Your face, do not cover,
With your wet hands.
Remember, you have offered me a flower,
When we went beside the sands.

Why did you offer me a tulip that's red?
Why not a flower which is black?...
