Mãe Querida
Ágata
Dear Mother
Beloved mother, beloved mother
The best we have
There is no other love in life
Equal to a mother's love.
Happy is the one who can say
That they still have someone who gave them life.
Happy is the one who can rely
On your embrace to snuggle up.
Thanks to God, I still have
Your affection, my dear mother
Your comfort, understanding
Your words full of reason.
Chorus (2 times)
Mother's Day should be
Every day, without anyone forgetting
Holy Mother, our joy
Blessed be your name, Maria
Never in life, for anything
Will I forget that there is only one mother
Happy is the one who can say
That they still have someone who saw them born.
Chorus (several times)
