Last Wish

Dearest, if you love me well,
Bury me in Oradell,
Next to that old maple tree
With my long-dead mom I'll be,
Then, on many a Friday night
When the moon is shining bright,
She'll make my most favorite dish
Flanken with gefilte fish,
There forever, yes - eternal
I'll have top flight care, maternal,
Dearest, if you love me well,
Bury me in Oradell...
