Darkness is overshadowed the face of the dead
Morning it will never see again
The Trophies he had won, he left behind
Why allow the earth to reap where it did not sow?

Behold him in the coffin, speechless
He who was once a warrior, helpless
Did he ever know it would come to this?
He had his turn once to live

Nothing is meant to last forever
Only the ignorant seems not to remember
Had we a second chance to life
How sweet it will be to return

But forever he has vanished like the mist
Living the good painful memories
The grave has taken the brave
To the land filled with darkness

Shall I say to you, ‘bye-bye’
Till we meet again, to part no more?
Shall we open our arms in expectation,
Of this journey of no return?


Look at the stream of tears
Flowing down from our cheeks
Shall it wash the pains away,
The pains of your sudden demise?

Please, gently sail,
Till the day, we too,
Kiss the dust.
