Before Departure

Farewell my friends

Farewell my dear ones

Farewell this world

Forgive my weakness

Goodbye my friends

Goodbye to evening parties

Remember me

In the spring

To work for your bread

Soon you must leave

Remember your family

Work for your children

I don't need much

And the older I become

I realize

My friendships

Lord carry me over

Any course of distance

Any cause of sorrow

My friends that last

Will dance one more time

With me

I don't need much

This I need
