-1-
A farewell party?!
Why we have to say goodbye
And recite poems
And speeches at your hearing
If we read a poem you wrote
About your parents,
Your land which you loved
No matter how far you are
We will fly to be with you?!
-2
You are a poet,
Smartness from your quarry,
And all the rhymes drink from your fountain,
If you sing, the whole world dance
And in front of your poems it bows
Like a shadow it walks and follows you
-3-
When destiny exploded your tearful
And with its hard hits it caused you pain
Your loved ones gathered around you
And hid you in their hearts
Because they loved you so much
They stood by you against the one
Wishing you to kneel
-4-
We love you
And this is why we see you
In our eyes dreams planting you
You are loyalty, honesty, love
And you have nobility proud in the heart
On all human kind raising you
-5
Shy I am to make you hear this poem
And all the poems kneeling at your alter
But before you return back to the home land
The land which riots played with it
I love to say to you: God be with you
