I remember my mother when she was dying

00:00:04.665 --> 00:00:06.951

Looked all shrunk up and grey

00:00:11.012 --> 00:00:13.405

I asked her if she was afraid

00:00:14.091 --> 00:00:17.194

She just shook her head

00:00:18.616 --> 00:00:21.399

I was afraid to touch the death I seen in her

00:00:22.864 --> 00:00:28.146

I couldn't find nothing beautiful or uplifting about her going back to God

00:00:31.276 --> 00:00:35.432

I heard people talk about immortality but I ain't seen it

00:01:43.944 --> 00:01:46.312

I wondered how it'd be when I died

00:01:48.003 --> 00:01:50.999

What it'd be like to know that this breath now

00:01:50.857 --> 00:01:53.349

was the last one you was ever gonna draw

00:01:57.001 --> 00:02:00.008

I just hope I can meet it the same way she did

00:02:01.976 --> 00:02:04.593

With the same calm

00:02:07.598 --> 00:02:12.001

Cos that's where it's hidden the immortality I hadn't seen

00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:03.544

أتذك ر أم ي عندما كانت تحتضر

00:00:04.671 --> 00:00:06.965

عندما كانت ترى كل شيء باللون الرمادي

00:00:11.136 --> 00:00:13.043

سألتها هل أنتي خائفة

00:00:14.931 --> 00:00:17.225

فقط هز ت رأسها

00:00:18.643 --> 00:00:21.438

خشيت أن أل مس الموت الذي رأيته فيها

00:00:22.898 --> 00:00:28.194

لم أستطع وجود شيء جميل أو رائع بشأن عودتها إلى الرب

00:00:31.324 --> 00:00:35.494

سمعت الناس يتحد ثون عن الخلود لكن ي لم أراه

00:01:44.148 --> 00:01:46.526

تساءلت متى أموت

00:01:48.277 --> 00:01:53.575

وماذا لو اني عرفت ان هذا هو النف س الأخير لي في هذه الحياة

00:01:57.913 --> 00:02:01.997

أتمنى أن ألتقي بالموت كما فعلت هي

00:02:02.209 --> 00:02:04.837

بنفس الهدوء

00:02:07.084 --> 00:02:12.511

لأن هذا هو المكان الذي يختبىء فيه الخلود الذي لم أراه من قبل

00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:03.501

Je me souviens de ma mère avant sa mort

00:00:04.601 --> 00:00:06.901

Elle était grise et elle avait rétréci

00:00:11.101 --> 00:00:13.401

Je lui ai demandé si elle avait peur

00:00:14.901 --> 00:00:17.201

Elle a juste secoué la tête

00:00:18.601 --> 00:00:21.402

J'avais peur de toucher la mort que j'avais vue en elle

00:00:22.902 --> 00:00:28.202

Je ne trouvais rien de beau ni de réjouissant à l'idée qu'elle retrouve notre Seigneur

00:00:31.302 --> 00:00:35.502

J'ai entendu parler de l'immortalité mais je l'ai jamais vue

00:01:44.999 --> 00:01:46.001

Je me demande ce que je ressentirai quand je mourrai

00:01:48.206 --> 00:01:53.506

Ce que je ressentirai en apprenant que je respire cet air une toute dernière fois

00:01:57.806 --> 00:02:01.005

J'espère juste pouvoir aborder la mort comme elle l'a fait

00:02:02.107 --> 00:02:04.807

Avec la même sérénité

00:02:07.807 --> 00:02:12.001

Car c'est ici qu'elle se cache L'immortalité que je n'avais pas vue

00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:03.534

Aku ingat ibuku saat beliau sekarat

00:00:04.665 --> 00:00:06.951

Beliau terlihat sangat renta dan lemah

00:00:11.012 --> 00:00:13.405

Kutanya apakah beliau merasa takut

00:00:14.091 --> 00:00:17.194

Beliau hanya menggelengkan kepala

00:00:18.616 --> 00:00:21.399

Aku takut menyentuh kematian yang kulihat dalam diri beliau

00:00:22.864 --> 00:00:28.146

Tak bisa kutemukan sesuatu yang indah atau menyemangatinya kembali ke Tuhan

00:00:31.276 --> 00:00:35.432

Kudengar orang bicara tentang keabadian tapi aku tak melihatnya

00:01:43.944 --> 00:01:46.312

Aku penasaran bagaimana diriku bila mati nanti

00:01:48.003 --> 00:01:50.999

Seperti apa rasanya mengetahui bahwa nafas sekarang ini

00:01:50.857 --> 00:01:53.349

adalah nafas terakhir yang akan kau hirup

00:01:57.001 --> 00:02:00.008

Aku hanya berharap bisa menemui kematian yang sama seperti beliau

00:02:01.976 --> 00:02:04.593

Dengan ketenangan yang sama

00:02:07.598 --> 00:02:12.001

Sebab di sanalah keabadian yang tak kulihat itu bersembunyi

00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:03.935

Recuerdo a mi madre cuando estaba muriendo

00:00:04.837 --> 00:00:07.362

Era fuerte

00:00:11.711 --> 00:00:14.999

Le pregunté si tenía miedo

00:00:15.148 --> 00:00:17.002

Ella sólo meneó la cabeza

00:00:18.985 --> 00:00:22.978

Yo temía la muerte que vi en ella

00:00:23.001 --> 00:00:25.957

No pude hallar nada bello ni edificante

00:00:26.999 --> 00:00:28.001

en que fuera con Dios

00:00:32.999 --> 00:00:34.998

Oí a gente hablar de inmortalidad

00:00:35.999 --> 00:00:37.024

pero yo no la he visto

00:01:44.137 --> 00:01:47.999

Me pregunté cómo sería cuando yo muriera

00:01:48.574 --> 00:01:51.202

Cómo sería saber que esta respiración

00:01:51.031 --> 00:01:54.143

era la última que jamás tomaría

00:01:57.999 --> 00:02:00.752

Esperaba poder saberlo como ella

00:02:02.822 --> 00:02:05.313

Con la misma calma

00:02:07.001 --> 00:02:09.001

Porque ahí es donde está oculta

00:02:09.999 --> 00:02:11.999

la inmortalidad que no vi
