He is dead
long time dead
Oh, the days long ago
when he was remembered
remembered by a love
Now he lies in a lonely grave
no one to morn
no one remembers his name
Oh, how we all turn to dust
Oh, long time ago
The sad farewell
Just bones in the earth
bones bleached so white in the end
Breath departed long ago
a soul departed
departed forevermore
what the meaning?
What the reason?
Life but the flicker of the eye
Life! Oh, breath just a gentle wind
passing by
It goes by and returns nevermore.
