Your Mother
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Who should you give your love to?
Your respect and your honour to?
Who should you pay good mind to - after Allah,
And Rasullullah?
Comes your Mother,
Who next? Your Mother
Who next? Your Mother
And then you Father
Cause who used to hold you
And clean you and clothe you?
Who used to feed you
And always be with you?
When you were sick, stay up all night,
Holding you tight?
That's right no other, your Mother
Who should you take good care of,
Giving all your love?
Who should you think the most of - after Allah
And Rasullullah?
Comes your Mother,
Who next? Your Mother
Who next? Your Mother
And then you Father
Cause who used to hear you
Before you could talk?
Who used to hold you
Before you could walk?
And when you fell, who'd pick you up?
Clean your cut?
No one but, your Mother, your Mother
Who should you stay right close to?
Listen most to?
Never say no to - after Allah
And Rasullullah?
Comes your Mother,
Who next? Your Mother
Who next? Your Mother
And then you Father
Cause who used to hug you
And buy you new clothes?
Comb your hair and blow your nose?
And when you cried who wiped your tears?
Knows your fears? Who really cares?
Your Mother
Say Alhamdulillah,
Thank you Allah
Thank You Allah for my Mother
