Hail Mother
Hail Mother full of beauty and graces
Give us this day our butter and white bread
Hear our chorus, our cherubic faces
Without thee our bellies would sing instead
While in tears and in fears we still moped
Our heads bowed, for all that we have transgressed
With her hair this dirty floor she has soaped
We shall spend the day in corners recessed
Shall we plead our case until thee will deign
And Mother may thy hymns sing of thy home
Our sin thee forgive, we hail thee again
Without thine voice, forever we shall roam
We bend our knees low to thee, our wishes
That thee would heal our harms with thy kisses
------
Happy Mother's Day
