Why are all these tears in your eyes?
Why?
I thought mothers should not cry!
They’re the ones
Who keep their children’s eyes dry
How ignorant was I!
A fact I can not deny
Until I left this world,
And reached the sky
And from above
Watched how much you cry
And felt your heartache
Oh, Mother!
Why did I die?
