Madre

I wish to be born again
To tell my mother
Mommy, how much I love you
And so many things from my childhood

I hear your voice already worn out
And tired from time
I see in your tender gaze
The light of my hopes

All the time waiting
Every night thinking
Where will you be, my daughter?
Your life is fading away

I ask God crying
Not to let my mother die
To always carry her with me
Like a necklace on my chest

I wish to be born again
To tell my mother
Mommy, how much I love you
And so many things from my childhood

I hear your worn out voice
And tired from time
I see in your tender gaze
The light of my hopes

I wish to erase the mark
From the lines on your forehead
Not even with a thousand kisses
Will I ever be able to erase it

I ask God crying
Not to let my mother die
To always carry her with me
Like a necklace on my chest

You are the best mother
You laugh where there is sadness
You also cry with joy
You are the most beautiful mother
You also cry with joy
You are the best mother
