Arriverderci Mami (2)

21 February, 2001.  My mom passed away.  Salvatore Chisari , an Italian American, who is a father figure for me, said to me I will never say good by to your mom.  I will just say "Arriverdeci" (Sampai ketemu lagi, Till See You Again). 

Sampai Ketemu Lagi
By: The beloved son of Rossetti Ging, Hanny Setiawan

  Tiap langkah dalam hidupmu
  Nyata kasihNya
  Tiap hati yang kau layani
  Tahu artinya Cinta Kasih Bapa

  Walau waktumu t’lah berlalu
  Kekal c’ritamu
  Kepergianmu Mami
  Bukti kasihNya abadi

  Reff:
       Berat nian tuk melepaskan
       Pahlawan Iman
       Tapi Tuhan tahu jalan manusia
            Trima kasih tuk segalanya
            Mami tercinta
            Sampai ketemu lagi

  Literal Transalation:

  In every step of your life
  His love’s shinning
  Every heart that you serve
  Know the meaning of His love
     Even though your time was passed
     Your story is everlasting
     Your dead, Mom
     is the evidence of God’s love

  Reff:
      It’s hard to let go
      Such a faith warrior
      But God knows human ways
          Thank you for everyhing
          Beloved Mommy
          Till see you again (arrivederci mom) (yhs)
