Birthdays do not end with death, But last as long as love, A maelstrom of memories That grace and honor move. And so we celebrate your day By visiting your grave, A place that you have left long since, But is all that we have. Dear spirit, come and join us here, Your loved ones by your stone! Come sweep across the barrier To claim us as your own! Happy birthday, dearest one! Oh, happy, happy day! Not even the most bitter night Can take this joy away!
