Silence the pianos and with muffled¹ drum Bring out the coffin², let the mourners come.

把琴声凝住在低沉的鼓声中，抬出灵怄，让送葬者进来。

葬礼蓝调

Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead Scribbling³ on the sky the message He Is Dead,

He was my North, my South, my East and West,

My working week and my Sunday rest,

我的工作日，我的休息日，

My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;

我的正午，我的夜半，我的话语，我的歌吟；

I thought that love would last for ever: I was wrong.

还以为爱可以天长地久，我错了。

The stars are not wanted now: put out every one;
