Partir

Before regrets arise
While nothing holds you back
Leaving
Before suffocating your youth
Before age caresses us
To submit to daily life
Leaving

Running from border to border
To encounter the truth
Leaving
Escape the summary destiny
That from the cradle to the cemetery
Is often just a traced path
Leaving

Like a vagabond, a bohemian
Travel the world and be amazed
Leaving
Turn your back on your problems
To face yourself
Instead of living in ignorance
Leaving

Not to remain like a stain
Go beyond the street corner
Leaving
For, having no fixed abode
See what the mountains hide
From those with short-sighted views
Leaving

Under different skies, see different races
Touch things with your hands
Leaving
Take the first passing wind
Create air and space
Between yesterday and the coming day
Leaving

Embark on this warm adventure
That is liberated existence
Leaving
Carve out a custom life
Wrapped in skin on your chest
And take the time to dream
Leaving, leaving

No longer have the keys, the watch
Accounts to settle every day
Leaving
Without weighing the pros and cons
To throw yourself into the encounter
With the sweet face of love
Leaving

Go forth to the being
Who is still unknown to us
Leaving
Meet, recognize each other
To perhaps return one day
And tell what we have seen
