Somebody Like Mother
Somebody Like Mother
If I remember the first time
I saw the sky; it was because of you
Mother, I started seeing the first tree
And the soil, I never walked off when I was a baby
Without my mother knowing that I was gone.
When I remember the time I spent with my mother,
I think there is no better time
That human can spend in life.
Why? Why? The war separates me from my mother?
Leaders, you are responsible.
You are the cause of all this.
My mother if I remember
On the time that I had with you,
I can't see any good time in life
Like the one I had with you.
Oh, no, why you people left your parents
And find another way?
You who are here
And still not to spend time with your mothers,
Just put it down and know that the time is coming
And to you who are in process of leaving your mothers,
Try to leave in a good way.
I see now how am feeling
Because of my mother,
I miss; for long I don't know
Whether she is still alive
Or she had left to the unknown place,
And start thinking about some wonders.
Ladies and Gentlemen forever are bad.
Remember to stay with your parent
In good way when you are still together
Because when you will be alone
You will see that something is missing in your life.
There is nobody like your mama
And I don't think if I will get some one like her
In my life,
Unless I get the angel of my heart.
