When glory beckons
With no regrets
On this day of sorrow
The course now set
End of life converges
A sweet release
Away from turmoil
To find peace
Death now approaching
Where is victory ?
At one with the earth
For all eternity
Pride now forgotten
Fighting for life
Strength decreasing
Twisting the knife
Now to leave - departure of the soul
With relief - eternity unfolds
Do not be sad - the pulse now gone
The war of life continues - this battle now is won
Mourn no more - reaching eternal rest
Remember with no sadness - the final request
Now to leave - departure of the soul
With relief - eternity unfolds |
