O mother, I'll make you proud,
O mother, I say it loud!
O mother, bear with me for a while,
O mother, have to walk just another mile.
O mother, father has got old, I know,
O mother, and you remain rather low;
O mother, fatigue is what you always hide,
O mother, your sacrifices, I'll never put aside.
O mother, the best days are soon coming,
O mother, the difficulties will be disappearing;
O mother, I say it again: I'll make you proud,
O mother, contentment, warmth---it is vowed.
