When I was a kid …
You walked with me along the beach
To enjoy the beautiful waves of the sea
You allowed my small hands
To feel the cold of the sea
You gave me freedom
To build my own sandcastle
When I was a kid …
You always cut a young coconut
I drank first
You drank later
It didn't bother you
When I was a kid …
You taught me how to read
A … B… C…
You taught me how to write
1 … 2… 3…
When I grew up…
I left you alone…
I've walked across the nations
I've lived in various traditions
I'm happy
My happiness is your blessedness
It is the fruit of your kindness
One night I dreamt about you
I saw you were sick
I saw many angels around you
I woke up…
My body was sweating rapidly
My hand was trembling nervously
My heart was beating quickly
It was a nightmare
It was a sleepless night
I called home
I just wanted to say hello
And to listen to your voice
What I got was a bad news
You had already passed away …
Three months ago…
Nobody told me…
I was angry…
I was crying…
Day after day
Months after months
Years after years…
I never accepted your departure
You kept coming to my dreams
You kept singing in my mind
I never wanted you to go…
This time…
I feel…
It's time to say goodbye …
I let you go… my dear grandpa…
Wish you rest in peace…
Goodbye… goodbye…
