Ode To Mother

O de to our Mother,
D ivine and celestial, incarnation of magnanimity,
E ndless piety immortalized.

T rue symbol of eternal graciousness,
O Mother, we, your humble children, bow to you.

M ay your indomitable spirit protect us from evils,
O cean of kindness with no bounds,
T o the downtrodden and suffering souls, You
H old their hands firm, wipe their tears....
E mancipated from prejudices and biases,
R eveal the bountiful universe and its glory.
