Sa Hanganan ng Kailanman

Sa Hanganan ng Kailanman

Mahal, ilang taon na ba tayong nagsasama?

Parang hindi ko na yata mabilang

Ilang beses na ba tayong nag-away?

Ilang beses din ba tayong nagkabati?

Ilang beses ko na bang sinabi sa’yong, “Mahal kita”?

Salamat at di ako nagkamali sa pagpili sa tulad mo

Sa bawat taon ng ating pagsasama,

Maging sa hirap man o ginhawa, sa saya , sa  lungkot

Ay patuloy kang nasa tabi ko umaalalay

Di man perpekto ang lahat ngunit naging perperkto

Tingnan mo ang mga anak natin

O kay bilis talaga ng panahon

Kailan lang ay mga musmus pa lang sila

At halos magkandarap tayo sa pagpapalaki sa kanila

Para lang mabigyan sila ng marangayang buhay

Nararamdaman mo ba ang nadarama ko?

Di ba ang gaan sa pakiramdam?

Sulit ang pagpapalaki natin sa kanila

Kahit anung hirap pa ang napagdaanan natin

Nagtagumpay tayo bilang isang magulang

Kahit na may mga sarili na silang pamilya

Ay hindi pa rin nila tayo pinapabayaan

Tingnan mo ang mga apo natin, ang lilikot

Sa tuwina’y kasa - kasama natin sila

Lalo pa kapag naghahanap buhay ang mga magulang nila

Mahal ko, aaminin ko, nitong nagdaang araw

Pinagmamasdan kita, di maiwasang ngumiti

Kasunod ng pagluha ng mga mata ko

Nagpagtanto ko na ikaw talaga ng soulmate ko

Na wala na akong mahanap na hihigit pa sa’yo

Alam kong darating ang araw papanaw din tayo

Pagmauna ka, maaari bang hintayin mo ako?

Maaari bang magkita ulit tayo sa kabilang buhay?

O kung ako man ang mauna sa’yo sa langit,

Pangako, maghihintay ako kahit pa sa hanganan ng kailanman.

Janna,

I just want to thank you!

Thank you being my best friend through all these years.

For being my wife, for loving me all these time.

My love, my heart beat is right...

You are my forevermore.

Remember that first time we meet?

We were young at that time.

How could i forget it was our high school days.

It was in the school canteen

You left your book and I run after you

I never knew the woman I am looking for

Is the most beautiful woman in the campus.

The woman every man could fall in love.

So we became friends and the right time comes,

I tell you the truth, we became lovers

And the day I proposed you...remember that day?

I gave you the sweet red rose,

And I said ' My beautiful Janna, will you marry me? '

I thought I get busted then you said 'Yes.'

I am the happiest man in the world.

My dearest wife, all these years

Though our marriage is not perfect,

You make me happy, you inspire me

Your the best mother to our children

I love you so much.

Janna, as I am writing this letter,

I could not stop to cry

The doctor told me I have Alzheimer's Disease

I know soon will never remember you anymore.

Please don't be sad my love, don't cry on me

Do you remember your favorite book?

I brought for you for the last time

I put it on beneath your cabinet

When you see it, please turn to page 80

Then you'll see the sweet red rose

A rose just like I gave you the day I proposed you

My dearest wife, I love you

One day I will no longer remember you

Please my love, do not sad

Embrace the book I gave you for the last time

And do always remember the rose.

I loved you now... I will love you forever!

Farewell my love... farewell...

Nael.
