My Dear Mother

I love you my dear Mother.
And I bless you my lovely Mother.
You were the only one there for me.
When I have but nobody.
To look at or talk to.
Mama! From you womb,
I got all my nourishment.
For those nine months.
After which you nurtured me.
Till I know who I am.
Mama! May your soul rest in peace.

You were loving and very caring.
No one is there to replace you.
Who cared for me as a child.
That I may grow and be somebody.
Who will care about you in the future.

Where would I be placed now?
As I am now an orphan?
Without the mother who was so dear to me.
Who watched my infancy.
Until now that I know myself.
I wish I am a man as at now.
So that I could have cared for her.
The way she did to me before now.

But now,
I see nothing turning left or right.
As there is no one to call onto.
OhI Why should I lose you so soon?
Dear mother! rest in perfect peace.
