When I Die

When  I  die,  please,  don't  come  to  my  funeral  
there'll  be  nothing  for  you  left  to  say  
Please,  don't  come,  'cause  I  won't  look  as  beautiful  
as  you  saw  me  the  very  first  day.  
You  won't  look  there  into  my  eyes  
I  won't  laugh  at  your  jokes  anymore.  
when  I  die,  there  will  be  no  cries  
'cause  I'll  ask  everyone  to  do  so.  
When  I  die,  please,  stay  at  your  place  
don't  come  and  get  on  with  your  business  
I  don't  want  you  to  see  my  pale  face  
and  to  wait  until  my  blood  freezes.  
When  I  die,  please,  stay  at  your  house  
'cause  the  air  will  be  filled  with  the  sorrow,  
as  you'll  raise  up  your  eyes  in  the  clouds,  
you  will  feel  your  soul  getting  hollow.  
But  if  you  do  come  in  the  end,  
would  you  bring  me  just  one  yellow  flower,  
stick  it  gently  into  my  cold  hand  
and  stay  beside  me  for  an  hour.  
In  heaven  or  maybe  in  hell  
I  don't  know  where  I'll  be  after  this.  
But  I  will  remember  you  there,  
I  swear,  till  my  spirit  exists.
