When I’m Dead

When I am dead, my dearest
Sing no sad songs for me, yeah
Plant down no roses at my head
No shady Cypress trees

Be the green grass above me
The flowers and dewdrops wet
And if you won't remember me
And if you don't forget

I shall not see the shadows
I shall not feel the rain
I shall not hear the Nightingale
Sing out as if in pain

But I shall dream through the twilight
That does not rise or set
And if you won't remember me
And if you don't forget

When I am dead, my dearest
Sing no sad songs for me, yеah
Plant down no roses at my head
No shady Cypress trees

Bе the green grass above me
The flowers and dewdrops wet
And if you won't remember me
And if you don't forget

When I am dead, my dearest
(When I am dead, my dearest)
Sing no sad songs for me, yeah
(Sing no sad songs for me, yeah)
Plant down no roses at my head
(Plant down no roses at my head)
No shady Cypress trees
(No shady Cypress trees)

When I am dead, my dearest
(When I am dead, my dearest)
Sing no sad songs for me, yeah
(Sing no sad songs for me, yeah)
