Dreams of you fade away
And I grope in the dark
To keep my fears allay
I get up in the morning
With a clutching pain in the chest
Has the time come so soon?
To lay your memories to rest
When the sun rises in the sky
The birds begin to chirp and fly
I do remember of you my son
You who never let my spirits die
/The grief is crushing. I think it was 'my fears at bay' or 'my fears
allayed'.
'You who never let my spirits die' was a beautiful one-line eulogy.
