- Saskia Kusrahadianti arranges: "When I am dead, my dearest" a poem by Christina Rossetti.
Christina Georgina Rossetti (5 December 1830 -- 29 December 1894) was an English poet who wrote a variety of romantic, devotional, and children's poems. She is perhaps best known for her long poem Goblin Market, her love poem Remember, and for the words of the Christmas carol In the Bleak Midwinter.
My favourite poem by her would have to be this one that I have arranged! The first time I read it, I believe I cried a little bit (I am such a girl. T__T)
Anyways, I hope you all enjoy this as much as I did playing and recording...
I shall dedicate this to my dearest~
Thank you Shard for requesting this one!

I love this poem too and so did my mum. She died recently and I wanted to read it at her funeral when I was searching I stumbled across your arrangement. It is so hauntingly beautiful. It played as we carried mum out of the chapel and made a beautiful end to a wonderful life. Thank you so much, it is a very special track.
Hhaha! the views is not important.. what's important is that I am happy, and all of you are happy! This is enough for me~
When I am dead, my dearest,
Sing no sad songs for me;
Plant thou no roses at my head,
Nor shady cypress tree:
Be the green grass above me
With showers and dewdrops wet;
And if thou wilt, remember,
And if thou wilt, forget.
I shall not see the shadows,
I shall not feel the rain;
I shall not hear the nightingale
Sing on, as if in pain:
And dreaming through the twilight
That doth not rise nor set,
Haply I may remember,
And haply may forget.
Thank you so very much for subscribing =]
I am very glad that you enjoyed this! :D
:D You're wonderful! thank you so much for watching!
ScheherazadEify singing this song has fulfilled one of my life's goals. This song gets a lot of playtime on my computers.
The elegant beauty with which you deliver these extraordinary lyrics is simply stunning.
Kalepherion I want to leave a comment but with brevity you've left nothing else to be said about a poem written by an angel and sung by an angel with the voice of a nightinggale.
I'm an atheist but if god existed this is what his angels would sound like, the power to swing nations could be grasped with this voice, keep up the outstanding work.
You have one of the best voices I have heard in a long time.
so sweet and sad feeling... and amazing music and vocal...
Me too, i thank you for all beautiful songs
So awesome!! Just as I expected!! Thank you so much for doing this one!
The world is not ready for such a wonder...if they made a duet, they would get swarmed with fans, and the subtle beauty of their collective masterpiece would be drowned under their muelling.
The world will have to wait...though it breaks my heart to say it.
This is beautiful!
You gave it a fresh air I can say.
SIMPLY STUNNING!! SIMPLY STUNNING!!
Beautifully
Bruce Lee's Favorite Poem on the 49th Anniversary of his passing. And the best rendition ❤️
I'm, I.. I mean this is really.. Agghh I'm speechless. I'm just speechless. Just a simple 'Amazing' won't do justice for this kind of performance. Thank you. Just thank you so much for all of your works.
Beautiful! I can visualize wind blowing the leaves of a tree and the cold weather. Sent chilld down my spine. This is the kind of music that can send imagery. I feel like crying! :'(
Wow! So good! I love this poem... And what you made out of it really touches me. Thank you.

Hahha!! Merrigan is such a wonderful artist!
We probably will be collaborating in the near future! :P
Beautiful! Does anyone know if anything has been done for the poem "Sleeping at Last"? (still be Christina Rossetti) I would like to use it for a dance performance.
