A Grateful Heart

A Grateful Heart

Mom, when I was in a cradle,

You started to nurture me and raise me carefully,

Now I am grown up,

You still look after me and help me.

You kindly arms,

Always open for your daughter.

Your limitless patience and selfless contribution,

Let me have an unforgettable childhood.

Your encouragement and tender sentiment,

Have helped me get over many difficulties.

No matter what your severe punishment,

Or reprimand of me,

Your heart always loves me,

You dedicated all your life to me.

On this annual Mother's Day,

Let the voice from my heart,

Utter my immense gratitude to you.

And wish every mother in the world,

Happiness, health and wealth.
