Just Make Sure
by barrie haughton » Wed Aug 06, 2008 3:39 pm

I must insist no prayers
are read
when I am dead (or just before),
and what\'s more, I ask you, please,
don\'t dress in black,
wear a death mask,
or hold back. Just have a drink,
enjoy the crack. Be wary of
persistent priests
with rumours that I
rest in peace. Don\'t talk of any good I did,
stand your beer
on my coffin lid - remember
I could be a twat - so don\'t forget
to mention that.
Play my music
good and loud, dress me
in a hippy shroud, and when they feed me
to the ground, make sure that there\'s
no scratching sound.

仅仅想确保

我坚持
在我死时（或死前）
不要祈祷，
另外，我请求
不要着黑色的服装，
也不要带死人面具，
或控制自己的感情。来，喝上一杯，
笑谈人生。留神
那些固执的牧师
散布流言，愿我
安息。不要谈论我做过的任何有益的事，
把你的啤酒放在
我的棺木盖上——记住
我可能是个讨厌的人——所以别忘了
提这事。
放响我的音乐，
给我穿上
嬉皮士的尸衣，当他们
放我入土时，一定不要
弄出刺耳的声响。
