In the mirror, time leaves its traces,
I struggle to see what time erases.
The wrinkles tell a life to build,
Memories, regrets to be fulfilled.At the dawn of sixty years, I look back,
So many dear faces, gone, far, yesterday.
Orphaned by my parents, loneliness tightens,
A retrospective, the story of a proud warrior.I sacrificed my dreams, offered to my children,
Motherhood, a sweet burden carried long.
Hidden, silenced, judged by standards,
Imposed by family, bastard rules.At the dawn of sixty years, I look back,
So many dear faces, gone, far, yesterday.
Orphaned by my parents, loneliness tightens,
A retrospective, the story of a proud warrior.But deep within me, a glimmer of hope persists,
Reviving dreams, before life resists.
Learning to live a new chapter,
To rise, to be reborn, like a beautiful shooting star.At the dawn of sixty years, I look back,
So many dear faces, gone, far, yesterday.
Orphaned by my parents, loneliness tightens,
A retrospective, the story of a proud warrior.In this melody, a new life sprouts,
Perhaps, finally, learning to live without end.
At the dawn of a new chapter, I breathe,
Hope guides my steps, towards a future to write.
