Dearest ancestor beneath the Earth 
Forgotten and all alone 
Today I bring these flowers to thee 
And lay them on your tombstone 

Though a bundle of roses is hardly fitting 
To truly honor your sweet memory 
Sometimes I think these simple gestures 
Are less for you but for me 

I light a candle next to your place of rest 
And from my eyes flow bittersweet tears 
Though sad they reduce emotional stress 
And in regards to Death I now have no fears
