My mother once said:
'Son, find the right girl to marry'
was her best advised that day.
She meant that I find a girl
who is loyal, bright and pretty
an ideal gal she wanted for me.
But, wherever I look I can't find
the ideal maiden right for me.
Many gals looks refine and beautiful,
just like the woman my father married.
So I just pray that someone will come
a woman just like what my mum wants.
In 30 years we have been married
our love still lingers with zest that blaze.
Truly I can say that you aren't the woman
whom mother wants for me to marry
But I can proudly answer her today:
'Mother, Miliza is the woman for me!
