A Burial Lyrics

As we, the community, have gathered here, I would like to pose a question;
How do you sum up a life in a few words?
How do you measure the weight of a soul in a matter of moments?

You do not.
You cannot.

But you can pray for rest
and you can pray for light
and you can remember,
you can always remember;

Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine, et lux perpetua luceat eis.
In memoria aeterna erit iustus, ab auditione mala non timebit.
