Do not stand at my grave and weep. I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the Gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the mornings hush, I am the swift uplifting rush of quiet birds in circled flight, I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there, I did not die.

We will never be able to repay you for your sacrifice. Thank you, dear brothers for keeping our families safe. You will forever hold you in our hearts, and promise we’ll live and die for our motherland.
Jai Hind!
