I hope we see again,

But not in death,

Or in the stormy rain.

Now, trekking on this pitiless path,

In opposite ways,

I hope we see again someday.

Thinking of the time together we shared,

Going from here to there,

In the overpowering heat of the sun,

I swear, this journey was no fun.

As you now dwell,

In that land beyond the seas,

I hope all goes well.

I hope you think of me,

As I think of you.

And if you ever miss me,

Look into the sky,

As it blankets us,

In its impeccable azure smile;

Strengthening our bond like never before,

So that we remain friends forever more.

But goodbye, for now, my friend,

I hope this friendship never ends.
