My son
The knowledge that you have gone
No longer drags at my heart with each breath I take
And as I stand here to say goodbye
I feel a deep sense of peace filling my mind
It seems that after a while the pain settles like dust in a room that has been closed
And that will never be used again
All that is left is the bittersweet memories of your boyhood
And they come filtering through my thoughts
Like sunshine through the clouds
On a warm
And friendly morning
I remember the way the world around you used to light up when you smiled
There was also the great love you had for life
And for all small creatures in need of understanding
And your protection
And I remember my pride in your growing strength
And the slowly dawning confidence of your early manhood
Ah yes, I remember your mistakes
But I remember how you learned the value of humility and truth
How you came eventually to know what it meant to be a man
With the power to be gentle
And yet the strength and the guts to live and die for your country
And for those you loved
And that is what this is all about, my son
You are not only a part of me
But one of the sons of this fair Motherland of ours
And that's the memory that can never die
Your values, your beliefs
And your courage
Will love in the hearts of all true men forever
Your sacrifice
And the sacrifice of all our sons
Sons of this, our fair Motherland
Were not in vain
And in a strange and beautiful way
It somehow makes my grief worthwile
May God go with you, my son
Adios
My son
