Sister, where are you now?
In my final hour,
My final breath.

Together, we can conquer this battle
That has once torn us apart.

We can climb these many trees,
We can swim this vast ocean,
We can walk this great mile.

Stand up with me, sister.
Help me in my defining moment,
Help me make it bright.

Together, we conquer.
We achieve.
We die.
