Ode To My Mother
When I was born and the world rejoices,
Mom! You cried along with me, thinking I was cold.
When I started walking and the World rejoices,
Mom! You cried tears of joy.
When I started talking and the world rejoices,
Mom! You Smiled and kissed me.
When I was in search of knowledge and the world tested my ability,
Mom! You know I can do it already.
When I was put to shame and the world was against me,
Mom! You hold me close to your bosom.
When I was sick and the world loses hope in me,
Mom! You prayed for me.
When I was away from the creator and the world judged me,
Mom! You bring me back to Him.
When I was lost on my way and the world deceives me,
Mom! You showed me the right path.
When I was broken and the world laughed at me,
Mom! You mend my brokenness.
When I was in solitude and the world left me alone,
Mom! You gave me company,
When I was hungry and the world gave what was left,
Mom! You feed me with everything you could earn.
When I was satisfied and the world rejoices,
Mom! You teach me to be humble.
When your time has come and the world stopped,
Mom! I will be there for you,
When you find solace in God’s hand and the world cries,
Mom! I will……………
