Reqium
Death my old friend, I welcome you like an old friend.
Young at first now an old man, I open my home and heart and welcome you you in.
So you bony spirit with the hellfire eyes take my weary soul.
Guide my gently into good night, cross the dark water to the gate of Hade's home, as I take my place in the underworld and eternal rest.
