Don’t Cry for Me When I Am Gone

So, though I give you all my heart,

the time will come when we must part.

But all around you, you will see,

creatures that speak to you of me;

a tired horse, a hunted thing,

a sparrow with a broken wing.

Pity – and help (I know you will)

and somehow, I will be with you still;

and I shall know, although I’m gone,

the love I gave you lingers on.
