Don't cry for me - a poem that asks for joy. Here, someone throws sand in the air in celebration.

Don’t cry for me those sadness tears

Don’t cry for me those sadness tears – I want tears of joy!
Be glad for me, for all I’ve been —
Be glad I’ve lived my all.
Be glad, instead, that I am dead,
If that’s what you’d prefer.
Just not for me cry sadness tears — cry me those tears of mirth!
