Sleepless nights before and after my coming Pain prior and after my existence You never became tired but drew closer Catch a cold, have me warm The person who bore to believe in me always Beatings were a sign of distinguished love You stood defensive even in my own wrongs And applauding me to find the best ever You never left me for anything Carried me from crawling and sickness Installed in me a merciful heart of giving All I am is a bit of what you had for me Youβre the light that smoked out my darkness Taught me to love the right and convert evil Words are a meal to my daily life I can never get enough, or tired of listening I will forever be grateful to have you And will keep on keeping on.
