Often, feelings about the loss of a loved one cannot always be expressed in the size of a tombstone on the grave, and more than it can be done with words, or rather with an inscription on a tombstone, that is, write epitaphs. These words, as usual, carry deep regret and sorrow for the loss of a loved one.
We will help or find the right words for you.
To someone who was dear in life.
From those who love and mourn.

Your memory will remain forever in our hearts...

How hard it is to find the words
To measure our pain with them.
We can't believe in your death
You will be with us forever...

You left us, dear,
The mournful hour of separation has come.
But everything is still alive
You are in our heart, among us
***
Do not express with tears
all sorrow and sorrow...
The simple-hearted son of freedom
For feelings, he spared no life;
And true traits of nature
He often liked to write off.
He believed dark predictions
And talismans, and love,
And unnatural desires
He gave his days as a sacrifice.
And in it the soul kept a reserve
Bliss, torment and passions.
He died. Here is his grave.
It was not made for humans.

But if you choose it correctly, it may turn out that only three or five words are enough, which will express much more than one quatrain. By the way, in prose the inscription on the grave cross looks much better and is combined with the strict and sublime features of the product.

For the truth of an honest fighter!

Mouth trembling whispered...

And in the clear sky the light will flash,
The light of new stars.

And never get discouraged.

May the earth rest in peace!
Quietly I left ... But I made a noise,
He left mountains of problems unresolved!

For some reason I added new logs.
I died, submitting to nature.
But thousands of thoughts fit in my soul.
One of them went out - what a little?!
I live in the thousands that remain.
No, I will not reconcile myself until the day I die
With the terrible burden of being,
That children are dying prematurely
That you died, I remained!

Your peaceful sleep!
He, dying, doubted
What the hell will happen to him.

To give it to you.
Don't know where I turned the way
To what extent did you move out of life?
O friend, I have done all earthly things,
I loved and lived on earth.
You left the sweet threshold
On a long journey, unknown to the living,
Only the one whom the gods deify,
Gone forever young.
But a cramped coffin, greedy prey,
Will not give out a dead singer.
He's sleeping; him in a cold grave
You don't need a mortal crown.
Are you tired of these faces
From a foreign, insincere land.
The pain is dull in the temple.
The day of torment is over...
Nothing to do with other people's suffering
It's easier to put out unnecessary light,
Because he fears death
Millions of colored lights...
We were not told by an angel of light
Why, when endured
To us, the color of paradise, it is in its heyday,
He dropped it into the abyss.
Your white graves are nearby,
The bells sing the same song
To two hearts whose life was
On a winter day, a brightly blooming garden.
And all of us to go apart:
This - on the people, those - in the wilderness.
But we will be on the way
When will we die.
Let the living passions choke
Demanding an answer.
God rest their souls
At the edge of the world.
Either honey, or a bitter cup,
Either hellfire, or rubbish ...
Everything that was mine is now yours.
Everything is for you. Dedicated to you…
We cannot find words to describe our grief,
Do not find strength in the world to lift you,
Our words can not fit even in the sea,
How cruel fate that took you away.
She stands before my eyes
Live with a smile on your lips...
No, she didn't! She is with us
And will live in our hearts!
So they look into eternity -
Peacefully and dispassionately.
(Quietly, softly and calmly.)
(epitaph under the photograph of the deceased)
Do not leave me!
I'm endlessly scared
I'm so painful
It's so scary without you!
I can not live without you!
And in the rain without you - dry!
And in the heat without you - chill!
Without you, Moscow is a wilderness for me!
For me, the bride will cry honestly,
For me, the guys will pay off debts,
For me, others will sing all the songs,
And, perhaps, enemies will drink for me.
Inscriptions in verse
In the graveyard, in white smoke,
muddy soul walked,
A blizzard howled at the moon,
dragged wings.
She rise from the ground
Spirit was missing
It hurts the burden on the soul
was hard.
Earth is a minute settler,
The earth's momentary beauty,
Why so early my baby
Have you gone to heaven?
Why in this rebellious vale,
O angel of pure beauty,
In the midst of hopeless sorrow
Have you left your father and mother?
Loving is so stupid
Everything didn't turn out the way you wanted.
Cold ones fly
Slippery tentacles into a world of loneliness.
They maim and hurt, and the heart is squeezed with polite lies,
But we will not become cold, slippery either!
Gloom swallowed
Sun and stars...
Give me your hand -
It's so dark in here...
you lost
My medallion
And he had a secret
All our dreams...
No pain, fear and confusion
On your sweet face -
A timid smile on him
And mild confusion. How unusually you are silent ...
The breath of death did not touch
You - and you were not horrified,
You seem to lie down and sleep. Sleep, ……………!
In the open field, yes in the blue fog
The wind has blown.
So it leads the edges of the earth
Up to the stars.
So it circles the dust of the roads
far away,
May he prophesy a star in the sky for me
Sadness.
only angel of death
Spread wings to the wind
And breathed in their face -
And their eyes dimmed
And cloudy eyes
The dream fell without end
And just got up once
And the hearts are cold.
Mysterious dusk and holy on the precipice
Over the sea in grass and flowers.
Two people lie and the stars float
In their closed eyes.
They listen to the waves whisper
The fog on the grass leaves traces.
Soon the birds of the night will be silent,
And the sun will rise from the water.
Who felt, who knew?
What will the storm turn into?
Woe and trouble
Should we bypass?
Viet paths gift of Heaven,
In the night opens his eyes
To those who keep the path
Together with me.
Every night
Wash with dew those who believe in spring.
Faces anointed with peace
Daredevil.
Every night
Leads us to last page.
Give her your palms if you're ready.
My friend, I say goodbye to you!
Yes, the time has come.
What tied the fetters tighter -
Separates us now.
That evening will not come
Where is the call or letter.
But suddenly you remember in the evening
My pretty face.
Do you remember the sound of guitar strings,
Light rustle, silence.
And when you're old -
I will come home to you.
I'll tell you what happened
What lies there ahead.
In the meantime, live, dear,
And don't expect me soon!
On this mournful cold stone
Look every man!
Imagine in your mind
Rapid Age.
Know - once yours
The days will end.
Hurry, have time to weave yourself
A crown of good deeds!
The last sound of my string,
Like a herald of death will sweep
And maybe in the hearts of people
It will respond to their secret sigh;
And the frightened world will tremble,
And in a quiet hour as a pledge of glory,
In mute anguish, on a bloody coffin
Will bring tears of sadness.
Do not draw tombstones and slabs
Above my grave
Didn't love in life
When something presses on the chest.
Let the grass grow there
And the nightingale sings on the branch,
To make the traveler tired
I could sit down and rest a little.
Design of inscriptions
Epitaphs, tombstone inscriptions, performed by the masters of our company, can be decorated different ways. One of the most popular is gilding. With the help of the thinnest tinsel plates and special glue, the letters are given a bright contrasting shade. This method of decorating is suitable for monuments of light colors.
An equally well-known and popular design option today is the application of texts in bronze letters. However, this embodiment is more suitable for performing small memorable phrases, since the symbols themselves are quite large. Bronze elements are attached to the monument with the help of small pins that each letter has on the back.
The texts of gravestone inscriptions can be framed with a beautiful frame or vignettes. Thanks to this design, the epitaphs become more expressive. Often sayings are decorated with drawings and patterns corresponding to the content of the inscription - candles, crosses, icons, temples, flowers and others.

It just so happened that our life begins with two equivalent and at the same time opposite events - birth and death. And if the first is usually expected with special trepidation and joy, then the outcome is often a completely unexpected and difficult event in the life of the relatives and friends of the deceased. It's like a thunderstorm on a clear day. No one is ready for such a turn, but it still cannot be avoided. And therefore, perpetuating the memory of a loved one who has departed to another world after his death is not just necessary - it is a kind of ritual and paying respect, love and gratitude. This is where the inscriptions on the monuments become very relevant, which help to fully express one's attitude towards the deceased, as well as talk about him.

They can be designed in the form of sayings, memorable words, lines of poetry and even entire poetic compositions.
Epitaphs can be used for:

Essence of epitaphs
Their main purpose is to perpetuate the last tribute to the deceased person on the day of his death. There is a whole set of ready-made epitaphs, but it is desirable that relatives, or someone at their request, compose individual text relevant only in this particular situation.
Its meaning may be different. Epitaphs contain words of farewell, gratitude, love, sorrow, admiration, etc. There are times when people, during their lifetime, choose a saying that would look most appropriate on their grave.
Of course, epitaphs must be sincere and lyrical. In them, light sadness should be combined with gratitude for the fact that this person lived among people.
In some epitaphs laid deep meaning understandable only to those close to the deceased. Other times, it's just a warm goodbye. It all depends on the degree of closeness and secrecy of what relatives or friends would like to express both to the deceased and to the whole world.
