Mother
Selflessness in her personified
Unconditional love exemplified
Sacrifice comes to her naturally
Lynch-pin of the clan actually
She stays awake while kids sleep
Loss she bears success they reap
For them she forsakes her needs
Who can match her noble deeds!
Yet at times they treat her badly
Don’t give her true respect sadly
Rude they become and scold her
In scorn and disdain they hold her
Her emotional needs they neglect
Something they will surely regret
If anyone pampered them it was her
In her lap helpless infants they were
She tended to them day and night
Lived in darkness to give them light
Alone they leave her to go abroad
What a cruel compulsion my Lord!
We salute you O daughter of Eve
A spell of magic on us you weave
