Son, Stop It

Son, stop it
I searched for a beautiful girl
married and she bore me
handsome son but now…?

Son, stop it
all the time he is near my wife
the beauty that is mine
 the son has taken over

Son, stop it
I see you in kitchen together happy
in compound talking, laughing
you give me no space

Son, stop it
I am wondering what is happening
service given to you are better
Sometimes I am forgotten

Son, stop it
What is this mystery string so hidden?
that binds mother and son
Why are these two closer, me far?

Son and Mother stop it,
I feel so lonely in my family×2
