I will not forget your sincerity
in personally coming to see us off.
Ich werde nie vergessen, dass Sie persönlich
gekommen sind, um uns zu verabschieden.
No olvidaré tu cordialidad
de venir a despedirte personalmente.
No olvidaré tu sinceridad
al venir a vernos personalmente.
Et puis, vous êtes venue
vous excuser en personne.
Não esquecerei da sua sinceridade de
 vir pessoalmente se despedir de nós.
