O CAPTAIN! MY CAPTAIN!!

I try to wish, but I stop.
I think back in time—
Which wish of mine ever came true?

When the one who loves beyond the sky
Hears my thoughts, hears my grief,
He grants only a single wish:

Finally, I know how to cry.
I know how to hide in the crowd.
The thing I was incapable of—
It has finally come true.

He is the real God,
Who makes every bad thing come true.
Finally, I know how to close the door.
I am a grown man,
And men don't cry.
Finally, I know how to leave in silence.
