Para Mis Nietos
Nestor Giraldo
For My Grandchildren
Grandchildren are
The most beautiful thing God gives us
They are seen being born, they are seen laughing
They are seen crying
To the youngest and to the grown-up
Without exception. I love them all
They have been a blessing to me
When I die, may someone tell them that I was happy
That as a grandfather humbly
I gave them something
That all the love I offered was sincere
I feel lonely when they are not at my house
But happy when they come to visit me
To the youngest and to the grown-up
Without exception, I love them all
They have been a blessing to me
When I die, may someone, may someone tell them
That I was happy
That as a grandfather, humbly
Humbly, I gave them something
That all the love I offered was sincere
