“When I come to the end of my journey

and I travel my last weary mile,

just forget if you can, that I ever frowned

and only remember the smile.

Forget unkind words I have spoken;

remember some good I have done.

Forget that I ever had heartache

and remember I’ve had loads of fun.

Forget that I’ve stumbled and blundered

and sometimes fell by the way.

Remember I have fought some hard

battles and won, ere the close of the day.

Then forget to grieve for my going,

I would not have you sad for a day.

But in summer just gather some flowers

and remember the place where I lay,

and come in the shade of evening

when the sun paints the sky in the west.

Stand for a few moments beside me

and remember only my best.”
