"In you, dear Mother, my pride resides,
No hate could ever in my heart abide...
I love you, yes, it's true,
Not because I have to...
In your smile, a sparkling gem, you shone so...
A beauty, a vision, a radiant light...
In a world where beauty's confined,
To a frame, a shape, so pre-defined...
In the reflection of divine light, I stand,
A child of God, created by His hand...
Your years have been long and beautiful
You Ruled with Power and Might...
In shadows cast by prejudice, a knock resounds,
At the door of your heart, where peace abounds...
Fathers are like the ocean,
Vast deep, strong in motion...
Yeah Cancer,
What a horrible disease...
Humanity is capable of such beautiful dreams
and horrible nightmares...
In the morn of days, when time was but young,
God’s gentle hands beheld, creation sung...
Shall I hail the rising ray
Or overflow my cup with tears of joy...
