Farewell, dear friend of the forest,

Your spirit now takes flight,

Leaving us with memories bright,

Of days you danced in the moon's soft light.

Your laughter like a melody,

Your wisdom deep as the ocean's tide,

In every flower, tree, and blade of grass,

Your spirit shall forever abide.

The birds sing a mournful tune,

The wind whispers a lullaby,

As we gather here under the moon,

To bid you a final goodbye.

Gone from this world of mortal men,

Yet in our hearts, you remain,

A guardian of this sacred glen,

A beacon of light in a world of pain.

May your journey be swift and true,

Through realms of light and shadow,

And may your spirit always be renewed,

In the arms of the great meadow."
