A Queen Like No Other
Who begot and bred me,
who cleaned and clothed me?
A nifty nurse like no other:
my matchless mother.
Who fed and gently fold me,
who always hug and hold me?
A faithful friend like no other:
my matchless mother.
Who heard me before I could talk,
who weaned me till I could walk?
A gifted guide like no other:
my marvelous mother.
Who held me tight in cold nights,
who made sure I always act right?
A goddess like no other:
my marvelous mother.
Who wiped away my tough tears,
who quenched the fire of my fears?
An alluring angel like no other:
my matchless mother.
Who should I always go to,
who should I never say no to?
A super star like no other:
my marvelous mother.
Who should I take good care of
who should I never be scared of?
A sweet soul like no other:
my marvelous mother.
Who radiates with rare royalty
Who deserves my love and loyalty?
A cute queen like no other,
my marvelous mother.
