« Farewell! I believe that in this life
I will never see you again.
God passes, he calls you and forgets me;
By losing you I feel that I loved you.

No crying, no vain complaints.
I know how to respect the future.
Come the sail that takes you,
Smiling I will see it leave.

You leave full of hope,
With pride you will return;
But those who will suffer from your absence,
You won’t recognize them.

Farewell ! you are going to have a beautiful dream
And get drunk with dangerous pleasure;
On your path the rising star
It will dazzle your eyes for a long time to come.

One day you might feel
The price of a heart that understands us,
The good that comes from knowing it,
And what we suffer when we lose it. »
(Alfred de Musset)
