"Do not part with your illusions. When they have gone, you may still exist, but you have ceased to live."
Is the translation below correct?
"Do not part with your illusions. When they have gone, you may still exist, but you have ceased to live."
"No se parte con sus ilusiones. Cuando ellos han ido, es posible que todavía existen, pero usted que han cesar de vivir."

Sorry about the rules,
So is this correct?
"No se pártase con sus ilusiones. Cuando ellos han irse, es posible que todavía existe, pero usted que ha cesado de vivir."
See forum rules for proper title.
partirse= pártase (3rd person, singular, imperative mood)
to leave=irse
(you) exist=existe
(you) have ceased=ha cesado
