A mother's child is every breath that she takes,
walking hand in hand,
they are every step that she makes.
as their steps will grow to strides, still a child
in mother's eyes
Every ache and pain they shall feel,
mother will share and with love she will kneel
She will pray to God to take care of her child
to protect and guide them through every mile
Her child is the very core of her soul
from baby in arms to an adult they will grow
For to a mother, her child will stay
the precious infant she held that day.
