My Father, My Daddy

O, father, tall as an emerald mountain,
Caring for the family, loving each one.
Scintilate like a star, you light up my world.
Sacrifying your nights and working hard on days,
You pile up heaps of paychecks for us live on.
O father, now, I have my gift for you...
My tears, streams winding their only way to your soul.


to my dad on FATHER DAY
