Mother of mine! you gave to me,
all of my life to do as I please,
I owe everything I have to you,
Mother sweet Mother of mine.
Mother of mine when I was young
you showed me the right way things had to be done,
without your love where would I be,
Mother sweet Mother of mine.
CHORUS:
Mother you gave me happiness,
much more than words can say,
I pray the lord that he may bless you ,
every night and every day.
Mother of mine now I am grown
and I can walk straight on my own,
I'd like to give you what you gave to me,
Mother sweet Mother of mine!
REPEAT CHORUS:
Mother of mine now I am grown
and I can walk straight all on my own,
I'd like to give you what you gave to me,
Mother sweet Mother of mine!
Mother sweet Mother of mine!
