Homage to Motherhood

I owe thou a lot

For thy sacrifice to give me life

O! Mother dear

Thou pardoned me for all my deeds

Thou absolved my many a howler

Thou rendered me a brawny support

At the trouncing of my spirits

Thus made me witty all the time

I’m the strongest creature

I could mince the hill

I’m the flimsy mortal

I couldn’t create a Mother

I’m the wealthiest being

I could pay for the opulence

I’m the untoward being

I couldn’t repay for thy labor

I’m the most potent person

I could rule the earth

I’m the feeble one

For thou are the supreme power

Thou are the creator

Thou are the protector

O! Mother dear,

Thou are the cause of salvation

I bow to thou

That’s the least I could do

O! Mother dear

Naught much can I do
