Loving Mother
Despite the scorching sun, the constant wind, the heavy rain
You are my loving mother, my loving mother
You are my loving mother, my loving mother
You always give a hug that feels so warm and soothing
I can feel your tenderness on our brown skin
I can feel your tenderness on our brown skin
It's because our love is so big
Even from a distance, it never fades away
My loving mother, you are my loving mother
My loving mother, you are my loving mother
Oh land of mine, my sweet mother, you’re a wayward child
Who’s come back filled with anxiety for your warmth
