Wake Up, Child
I'm in mommy's arms
For her to cuddle me.
Come on, bully, try to take me away from there.
In her arms, I will live!
I was proud to be a child
And also to study.
Learning things in life - let it help me.
In her arms, I will live!
I'm in mommy's arms
For her to cuddle me.
Come on, bully, try to take me away from there.
In her arms, I will live!
Knowing how to talk to mommy,
Also pleasing daddy.
Celebrating the date - I have God to help me
In her arms, I will live!
I'm in mommy's arms
For her to cuddle me.
Come on, bully, try to take me away from there.
In her arms, I will live!
We made these little verses
To honor the children of my home
And of the whole capital,
In her arms, I will live!
I'm in mommy's arms
For her to cuddle me.
Come on, bully, try to take me away from there.
In her arms, I will live!
Mommy is a sweet word
That comes from my heart.
With time, it leaves longing and memories,
In her arms, I will live!
I'm in mommy's arms
For her to cuddle me.
Come on, bully, try to take me away from there.
In her arms, I will live!
When I went to school
Proud in action
Without waiting, mommy would come with a little piece of bread,
In her arms, I will live!
I'm in mommy's arms
For her to cuddle me.
Come on, bully, try to take me away from there.
In her arms, I will live!
