- Poem for burial ceremony
In this solemn moment, we gather here today,
To honor a life that has passed away.
With heavy hearts and tearful eyes,
We bid our final goodbyes.
CHORUS:
ELEDUMARE, the all knowing,
ELEDUMARE, the wisest,
ELEDUMARE, watches from birth till death,
ELEDUMARE, loves them than we do
A life well-lived, now laid to rest,
In nature’s embrace, forever blessed.
A soul departed, free from pain,
In eternal peace, it shall remain.
CHORUS:
ELEDUMARE, the all knowing,
ELEDUMARE, the wisest,
ELEDUMARE, watches from birth till death,
ELEDUMARE, loves them than we do.
Memories cherished, forever held dear,
A legacy that will never disappear.
Through laughter and tears, joys and strife,
This life has touched so many lives.
CHORUS:
ELEDUMARE, the all knowing,
ELEDUMARE, the wisest,
ELEDUMARE, watches from birth till death,
ELEDUMARE, loves them than we do.
Though we grieve and feel the pain,
Let us find solace in the memories we retain.
For in our hearts, their spirit will reside,
A guiding light, forever by our side.
CHORUS:
ELEDUMARE, the all knowing,
ELEDUMARE, the wisest,
ELEDUMARE, watches from birth till death,
ELEDUMARE, loves them than we do.
So let us gather, hearts filled with love,
As we send them off to the heavens above.
With gratitude and love, we say goodbye,
May their soul soar high, in the vast sky.
CHORUS:
ELEDUMARE, the all knowing,
ELEDUMARE, the wisest,
ELEDUMARE, watches from birth till death,
ELEDUMARE, loves them than we do.
This day, we honor and remember,
A life that will remain in our hearts forever.
Though they may be gone, their spirit lives on,
In the memories we cherish, from dusk till dawn.
CHORUS:
ELEDUMARE, the all knowing,
ELEDUMARE, the wisest,
ELEDUMARE, watches from birth till death,
ELEDUMARE, loves them than we do.
