Rest In Peace
Swiftly the wind blew
We thought it'd be but a few
But it left something so new
It was a sad and unpalatable news
Just when we were asking
We thought you'd still be breathing
We are left with our jaws hanging
When we were told what was happening
Our hearts are broken
From us all you've bn stolen
A good friend now to be frozen
One of our finest has bn stolen
We prayed and were waiting
It came and we were wailing
Same you that we were hailing
Now watched your breath as it was faiding.
Father receive this soul
For we loved him so whole
We thought together we'd grow old
Now your departure has dug a hole
Who will take your role
Arranging the files in roll
We lean and wail leaning on the pole
As our hearts are caged in cold.
Rest in peace my friend
Rest in peace till the end
On our knees we bend
And to the wind we send
Let our colleague get to the end
Never leave him till he's laid
On the bosom of his creator
Where he finds his everlasting rest.
I'll miss you my dearest brother
Till we meet again
Rest, rest and rest my brother.
