The night is quiet

The night is quiet and cold

Most souls are snoring, they deserve a rest

But my soul is still awake and cannot imagine

That the day I have to let go of my sons has come around

Sooner than I thought but they have grown and matured

And they are ready to leave home

I have been blessed so far,

Been given the chance to see them blossom

Now they’re young handsome men who are following their own destiny

No matter what the road of life reveals for them

I close my eyes to rest

To soothe the nerves and let my soul catch its breath

My eyes and heart are filled with love

No matter what secret of the universe is still hidden and can’t be found

I close my eyes and dream of a sunny day in the park

To be playing painlessly with my grandchild

I let my heart rest and the breeze blow my worries and pains away
