My Mother

I took your words for granted
When I was just a child.
I never  knew you had so much care
I always made you sad
Though you were so kind.


I never stopped to count the times
When you wipped my falling tears.
The times when you soothed me in my distress.
But now I know your love for me
Is something that cannot be defined!


All I have to say is
To thank Allah for giving me
The best mother on Earth!
"Give her a long healthy life"
To Allah I pray.
