English term or phrase: swing at the casket
Seorang memberi kata sambutan pada upacara pemakaman ayahnya. Seusai acara anaknya berkomentar:

"Why didn't you swing at the cascet?"

Si ayah menjawab, bahwa dia mungkin telah menyimpang sedikit dari catatan pidatonya.

Apa ya artinya "swing at the cascet' di sini?

Thanks,
ys

Indonesian translation:berpura-pura memukul peti jenazah
Explanation:
Ini nampaknya kutipan dari filem komedi Mafia “Analyse That”. Sang anak menghina almarhum ayahnya dalam upacara pemakaman sehingga anaknya (sang cucu) menanyakan kepada ayahnya mengapa ayahnya tidak sekaligus berpura-pura memukul peti jenazah almarhum.

melihat jenazah (di peti jenazah)


Explanation:
IMHO, take a swing at the casket = membuka peti jenazah/melihat jenazah untuk terakhir kalinya...Sedangkan, "i might have strayed from the notes" itu sebagai kalimat jawaban dr "you had to tell everybody"?"

menyampaikan wasiat


Explanation:
Menurut dugaan saya, "pemimpin upcara lupa dalam pidatonya untuk menyampaikan wasiat dari mendian", sehingga salah seorang anak bertanya, "Why didn't you swing at the casket?"

swing at the casce = menyampaikan wasiat.
