Darling, soon I will be sleeping in the churchyard over there Where grass and flowers are growing and birds sing everywhere Where the grass grows above me and spring flowers gentry wave Will you do this, darling, plant sweet flowers on my grave From you, sweetheart, I'm leaving your smile I'll never more see Darling, don't grieve when we're parted, pretty flowers will speak to me I will dream that you will be near me, as the blossoms gently wave Will you do this, darling, plant sweet flowers on my grave When the golden bond is broken, and they lay me down to sleep This will be the only token of our love I will want to keep That when I leave you, darling, this one little wish I crave In memory of our love, dear, plant sweet flowers on my grave
