Do not stand at my
grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am at thousand winds
that blow
I am the diamond glints
on snow.
I am the sunlight on
ripened grain
I am the gentle autumns rain.
When you awaken in the
mornings hush.
I am the swift unlifting rush,
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft star that
shines at night.
Do not stand at my grave
And cry.
I am not there: I did not die.
