Before Leaving....
The time has
come
We must now
leave
for distant lands
Only a few minutes
for gentle words and farewells
There are no words
which can express
what is in my soul
The hour of
parting has
arrived
Don't cry
we'll see
each other again
In a better land
Under a sun, moon and stars
which will glow
brightly above
No need to shed tears
If we keep ourselves
together
We will be well
prepared for the
time when we must part company
The ship will arrive soon
let yourself
see the truth
in my words
Our eyes meet
Our hands clasp
We will "keep the faith" - I'm sure of it
In the distance
lies our destination
The safe harbor
from the storm
We'll meet there in the
end
But for now
"Good - Bye"
