Mother, you respond to my song
Mother, You respond to my song;Therefore I sing.
Your Affection is boundless, Mother, I know.
Even when I forget You through my sulking,
Your infinite Compassion and Peace draw me towards You.
You are my ocean, Mother; I am Your tiniest drop.
The stars, the moon and the sun are all eternal companions
In Your cosmic Game.
