Till we meet again
My friends' congratulations made me pause
for their words were wrapped in a strange applause
It was as if they were happy to see me go

Their cheers were a bittersweet reminder
Of the struggles I faced and the pain I leave behind
My country, my land, my heart and my soul
It pained me to leave, but I had to take the toll
