I remember that night,
"Yo ma only son i have,
"The son of my youth" Ma mama told me!
The battles I fought,
Upbringing my "beloved"!
"Good looking , sharp brains"
Ma mom whispered!
Our hut "papa" built
Drawn by floods , and papa as well!
Left us in hunger and tougher moments!
I fought for " my" you my son! (mom cried)
She took me to school far as Mecca!
Dirty uniforms !no shoes ! no fare!
Till level six ! when i bought mine !
"Hold the breath" my heart whispered!
Passed the "papers" , all in ma way! Most High held my hands,
Turned sorrowful mom to happier lady!
(to all moms we love "you" our heroes)
