A Tribute

One day when I lay in immortal body,
My ears never to hear you speak;
One day when you are gone away from me,
Far beyond the mountains so high;
This come back and read to me again.
These words may I read before I go
Away from the greedy red hound.


Answers the question as to whether the soul stays conscious even now.
