A leaf of the church calendarA
Has just been tornB
It revealed the monthC
And the date that I was bornB
-
Of even date an inscriptionD
The birth of a remarkable womanD
Sanctified by her chastityE
And acts of charityE
-
Another page has been turnedF
In my life storyE
It reminded meE
The endless cold nightsG
Of being alone in my bedH
-
My old mother who is cooped upI
In a worn out rocking chairJ
Cheated death thriceK
To be with meE
Afraid to leave meE
In my solitary lifeL
-
She waits for meE
To settle downM
Eager to see little onesN
Who will be her crownM
And who will surround herA
Around the rocking chairJ
-
How can I tell herA
I don't want to go throughO
The road she trodP
When I rememberA
My heart melts for herA
-
The ugly scarsQ
I always see in her handsR
Whenever I hugged herA
Evidence of hardshipsS
She endured with all the menT
She had loved in her lifeL
-
Memories of endless criesU
Pain and sufferingV
Rootless wanderingV
Took an emotional toll on meE
It made my heart numbW
Killed the desireA
To have another lifeL
In my lifeL
-
I have tasted heavenD
Alone with GodP
Everlasting happinessX
I have experiencedY
Every moment I workedZ
In His HonorA
