Her spirit is still in the bardo, a place where the spirit transitions from the earthly sphere, to either enlightenment, or rebirth.

While in the bardo between life and death, the consciousness of the deceased can still apprehend words and prayers spoken on its behalf, which can help it to navigate through its confusion and be reborn into a new existence that offers a greater chance of attaining enlightenment.

If this is the case, she will be aware of your songs, and comforted by them as she prepares to enter her new existence. Your songs give her permission to go ahead and leave this world for her next adventure.

You have honored her well in this life, and into the next.

Take good care of yourself.
