You can have only one Mother,
Patient, kind, and true.
No other friend in all the world,
Will be as true to you.
For all her loving kindness,
She asks nothing in return.
If all the world deserts you,
To your mother, you can turn,
So all we can do, Dear Mother,
Is to go and tend to your grave.
And leave behind a token of love,
To the best mother God ever made.
