Grandma had lost the light in her eyes
When that golden granchild
Went out with a fight

She distracted herself
She took care of others
Until one day
She noticed another one's bother

Her lovely grandchild
Readying to die

And when they cried
Grandma knew that the child
Was tired of the fight

The first child had clung to live
Had been taken away
But life had beaten the second to pieces
They had no spirit left

So forgive me, Grandma
I love you, Grandma
And if I find my cousin on the way
I'll tell her you miss her without end
