I can never explain,
The pain that entangled me,
As I said Goodbye--
To my dear motherland.
Never knew when I'll return,
I was leaving her alone,
Between friends and foe--
I don't know.
Clouds covered the sky,
She was crying as she wished goodbye.
I was heading for open sea,
With only the sky above me,
Though I didn't know my destiny.
I may never come back,
But my love will never fade,
She made me to stand,
She taught me to live,
Through her I understood--
What is the world.
My standing is--
Her blessings.
Mother I'll come back,
Return to your lap,
To put in your feet,
All that I earn,
And help my brothers,
To learn--
The values of life.
Bless me mother,
That in all my births,
I be your part.
