When a Child Is Born
No words can express my elation at becoming a mother
Show my tears of joy on that perfect wintery morn
Go and show my parents our tiny new born son
Snow flakes fell like confetti on the day that you were born
Haze of my brain adapting to your daily routine
Ways to make you happy was all this mother knew
Lays you in a rocking crib where you drift to sleep
Days flew by like lightning, how quickly you grew
How proud we are of the man you have become
Wow them son, go show the world you're the best
Ciao my beloved child, you're always in my thoughts
Now fully independent and you have flown the nest
