Akikawa Masafumi's version of this song is a cover of the original performed by Arai Man. In fact the original version of the song was a Japanese adaptation of a poem by Mary Elizabeth Frye entitled "Do Not Stand at My Grave and Weep". |
Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there, I am not sleeping
A thousand winds
I am a thousand winds
And through this great sky
I am blowing
In the autumn I am the light, pouring down on the fields
In the winter I am the snow, sparkling like diamonds
In the morning I am the birds, waking you from sleep
In the night I am the stars, watching over you
Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there, I am not dead
A thousand winds
I am a thousand winds
And through this great sky
I am blowing
A thousand winds
I am a thousand winds
And through this great sky
I am blowing
And through this great sky
I am blowing
