There wasn’t even time to say goodbye—let it be that way.
Who is saying goodbye to whom?
Does a friend say goodbye to a friend?
Is it even possible to say it—ever?
And then, who is it that should say goodbye?
To those who betrayed us, deceived us,
To those who were ungrateful to us—
Can we forgive them?
Isn’t it only human to make a mistake once in a lifetime?
It is to the mistake that we must say goodbye.
When saying goodbye, the face must be calm.
The body must not tremble.
The face must not wrinkle.
The voice must not shake.
Black hair must not turn grey.
Grey hair must not fall off.
When saying goodbye, there must be youthfulness.
What are the words we are supposed to say?
"Shall we meet again?"
"Don’t come back this way again?"
"Why are we saying goodbye?"
While we’re still discussing all that,
Did we forget those who forgot to say goodbye?
Why say goodbye without reason?
No one is really leaving anyone.
Who truly knows anyone else?
If no one is leaving, then why goodbye?
But still, this is a ritual, my friend.
There is a certain charm in saying goodbye.
It is a ceremony.
It gives peace to the mind.
If you say goodbye in advance,
You won’t have to complain that you forgot when the time came.
So now, let us say goodbye to each other—
Or to this Earth, or to today’s sun.
After saying all this,
It would be wrong not to say goodbye.
