piumi wijenayake - When I Am Gone

When I am gone
I do not want you to be by my side,
I do not want you to cry,
It is useless of crying.

When I am gone,
I do not want you to stay by my side,
Without a wink of sleep,
I want you to be free from every burden

Now your mind should be at ease,
Now, you should brighten up,
Where I want you to stay beside me smiling,
Even though I would not be able to see.

I do not want you to weep,
I do not want you see you depressed,
I do not want you to be unhappy,
I do want you to be happy,

When I am gone
