Oh, it’s my funeral,
I became a lifeless body
A corpse
Laid down covered in white cloth
My heart has stopped beating
Blood in my vein is darkened,
And frozen
Oh it’s my funeral,
I became a lifeless body
I don’t want the tears of those,
Who didn’t cry for me when I was here
Who were not with me during my hardships
Who were not happy for my achievements,
Who stayed away, when I needed them the most
Request them to do the same,
Even at this stage of my non-existence
My exequies may not touch their paralysed sentiments
Oh, it’s my funeral,
I became a lifeless body
Give way to all those
Who are here for a glimpse of my body
Let them weep, cry and moan for me,
May this scene will remind them about my end
End of my role in their life
Perfectly incomplete
Oh, it’s my funeral,
I became a lifeless body
I remain senseless, unaffected,
Non-living mass of tissue
I lay, in front of my dear ones
I wish,
I could be a phoenix bird
And rise renewed from my ashes
And to be here with my dears for some more time
But in reality,
I no more exist in this world,
Gone to another world with my thrills and wishes
I can dwell here, only as a memory in those hearts
Oh, it’s my funeral,
I became a lifeless body
Would my body be decayed in the soil underneath?
Or burned to ashes along with the woods?
Would I become a star to shine and smile in the sky?
Would be I be reborn?
If yes, as what?
If not, what else is there for me?
Would I be meeting my beloveds who left the world earlier?
The pestering thoughts continue to be with me as always
Yes,
Even today, at my funeral
