MY MOTHER
(Renku)

Tamed in poverty
Motherless childhood mem'ry
A pang of sadness.

Responsible child
Looking after her siblings 
Her maternal role.

They grew together
And left town to another
Place of adventure.

Time came they parted
On each own without ado
Life took them away

To places beyond
The border of their old home.
So far far away.

They all got married
With a growing family.
They all multiply!

My mother is gone
A woman of great influence
She's a pure substance

A proverbial mum
Resting in eternal home
I'll see her one day.
