Mum
By : Farid Sanullah
Maa, the pain of carrying
All for my beginning
The tears the constant worrying
Maa, the first step that I took
My first gobbledygook
The first face I saw I was hooked
Sea of green, sunken ships
Treasure troves, lost and found
Skies of blue, rainbows end
Searching for that heart of gold
Maa, I ran away from home
And left you all alone
Maa, all alone to moan
All alone to moan and moan
Maa, whenever I should fall
And all I do is call
In no time, I feel ten feet tall
Maa, how deep your emotion
As vast as the ocean
Your love your absolute devotion
Maa, my happiness your wish
But I was so selfish
I lament what I should have cherished
Maa, what was your cost your price
For all your sacrifices
You deserve the Nobel Peace Prize
Rubies and pearls
Emeralds
Gold and diamonds
Jewel in the crown
Can’t replace your loving grace
Everlasting guiding light
Maa, not a day goes by
I think of the tears I made you cry and cry
Maa, your love will never die
Maa, the pain of carrying
All for my beginning
The tears the constant worrying
Maa, the first step that I took,
My first gobbledygook
The first face I saw I was hooked.
