Oh my sweet sweet gradmother,
You did the things my mother could never.
I do not want for you to get any older,
Please don't leave me, I don't want another.

My sweet grandmother, there's nothing to bother,
Can't hear me clearly? I'll repeat it louder.
If you ever feel cold, I'll get you a cover.
I'm very contented with you and me together.

My sweet grandmother, I'm starting wonder,
As days pass by, you start to act weirder.
You talk to yourself, alone with your laughter,
You never noticed me, though I've been tapping your shoulder.

My sweet grandmother, would this be all over?
You've been sick lately, and you think the world's colder.
You always lay in the bed, everyday I feel sadder.
This isn't the grandmother I used to remember.

My sweet grandmother, I guess it's time you cross the border.
Don't worry about me, soon I'll surely feel better.
You gave me the love I seek from my mother.
Oh my sweet grandmother, you're in my heart forever.
