To a courageous friend

Italian

I don't know you too well, but I do know that you are a tough guy.
I know that you take life as a constant challenge,
I know that now you are fighting against a brand new adversary
and I know that this time it will be a surrender.

But you will know how to accept this too,
as you always do, with  dignity and strength.
And when it will be the absolute moment
You'll surprise us again taking a running start before the leap.
