Dear Mother

At last I found some peace

because of you
could I see a better world

deep did you drive my soul
entering into my world of troubles

forever did my worries perish, and
gone were those struggling days

happy are those hours
in which I fall asleep in your lap

just like that you shaped my life
kind enough by sparing your life

little were my aims in life, and
more did you add to that

need not now I fear to fail, for
often you gave that confidence to sail

people when they offer me a lot of praise
quickly you'll come in ...
