Death Most Tragic

Wind carry my dying soul
   o'er yon river of hope.
Cast not my weary spirit
   into the tide of the ocean of sorrow.
Sky, cry for me tears that
   fill my heart.
Earth open your arms
   and embrace me.
Sun, shine not as I fall into
   my bed, my bed of eternal rest.
Moon, sing as my broken heart
   finally rests. Let it rain o'er
   me as Death comes to claim
   his hollow bride.
