Oh dear mother
You don’t know how much I love you
Although I call you funny names
We still share a special love 
That no one else can break
Oh dear mother 
You are such a friend
You come home late and tired, but you still come home and cook
You also taught me to read my first book.
To this day, I didn’t forget 
The love you gave to me
My plan is to show you appreciation, much bigger than you know
And when I start to speak to you, my emotions start to flow
Oh dear mother 
How I wish you could know
The love I have for you only strengthens and grows
And I just wanted you to know, you’re pretty as a rose
I love you, dear mother.
