I've had just enough time to... remember I was safe in your arms, mother of mine
Taken in a sculpturing workshop in Hanoi, Vietnam
I
remember though the world
May be
crumbling down all around
I was
safe in your arms, mother
Safe in
your arms, mother
But now I
am grown
And can
do things on my own
Won’t
you let me leave you arms, mother
Let me
leave your arms, mother
______
Mother of mine when
I was young
You showed me
The right way things
Should be done
I was young
You showed me
The right way things
Should be done
Without your love,
Where would I be?
Mother, sweet mother of mine
