Two Mothers के बोल

As I lay you gently down to sleep I hear my mother's voice lilting to me Unexpected child was I upon a young girl Through her tears she sang me farewell Come sing a song for the mothers Who held you in their arms, when you were a child Who sacrificed their dreams for ours, taught us to fly Soothing our fears with her lullaby Wrapped up in mother's crochet shawl I crossed a faraway sea to a world turned around New hands, a bottle, kind eyes and a strange lullaby My new mother answered my cries Come sing a song for the mothers Who held you in their arms, when you were a child Who sacrificed their dreams for ours, taught us to fly Soothing our fears with sweet lullaby Time like the tide she ebbs and flows And in my arms I cradle a child of my own Her eyes the forest green, whilst mine the cornflower blue Perhaps they're a keepsake from you? Come sing a song for the mothers Who held you in their arms, when you were a child Who sacrificed their dreams for ours, taught us to fly Soothing our fears with her lullaby Soothing our fears with sweet lullaby
