Do
not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I
am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on the snow,
I am
the sun on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When
you awaken,
in the morning's hush,
I am the soft uplifting rush of
quiet
birds in circled flight,
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave
and weep,
I am not there, I did not die.
