Just like the sun setting And the night creeps out of it’s hut My soul too shall crawl out of its hut And I too will be gone like the sun sinking down into the sea
When I’m gone Do not bother to befit my corpse For the dead do not care about luxury
Just lay me down to rest without a haste I need not a befitting burial Nor a memorable memorial A befitting life I do not taste
Lay me down to rest Let my face look up to the sky And watch the rising of the sun from the west I’ve lived, perhaps I’ve done my best
Lay me down to rest Let the moon be glad that it needn’t to light my path at night Let the sun shine with glee for it has no more duty to dry my clothes
