When I "Die".
When I die,
Do not smile,
Tell them no lies,
Do not cry or weep,
Tell them the truth that I sleep,
Tell them not to gaze, for my soul is going above my lip,
Tell them not to grieve or either morn,
Tell them the last thing bout my Song,
Do not call me a firth,
Tell them the truth no lies,
Do not help my soul as I fly
Do not laid me too deep.
When I die,
Do not cry,
When they cry? do not listen to their sounds,
Do not gather around,
Do not even surround,
If they do? Do not throw a feast,
Do not gather to meal,
Let the comforting smell seal,
If it offer delicious? Do not even sit and eat,
Let my stuff be sold,
At the price it was told,
As silver nor gold,
Do not proffer to hold.
All those in the city,
Tell them not to show signs of pity,
Tell them fairly bout my silly,
No sorrow or either mourn,
Do not tell them bout my fame,
Do not even cry as my soul run,
Do not call my name,
As it was so called the same,
Tell them that life is just a vanity and name,
And even the pale sun will ends in-vain.
