11 Do not stand Do not stand at my grave and weep,
22 by my grave and weep;I am not there, I do not sleep.
33 I am not there.I am in a thousand winds that blow,
44 I do not sleep.I am the softly falling snow.
55I am the thousand winds that blow.I am the gentle showers of rain,
66I am the diamond glints in snow.I am the fields of ripening grain.
77I am the sunlight on ripened grain,I am in the morning hush,
88I am the gentle autumn rain.I am in the graceful rush
99As you awake with morning's hush,Of beautiful birds in circling flight,
1010I am the swift up-flinging rushI am the starshine of the night.
1111Of quiet birds in circling flight.I am in the flowers that bloom,
1212I am the day transcending night.I am in a quiet room.
1313 Do not stand I am in the birds that sing,
1414 by my grave and cry;I am in each lovely thing.
1515 I am not there. Do not stand at my grave and cry,
1616 I did not die.I am not there. I do not die.
