Little Gift
Today is your birthday, beautiful mommy
today is your birthday and I must sing to you
this song that was born here in my chest
full of adoration, love, and hope.
Today is your birthday, beautiful mommy
that's why I bring you my white flowers
flowers that I picked along the way
descending this morning from the mountain.
Mother, I come from afar
to bring my gifts
to bring kisses, flowers, and songs.
Kisses to your holy forehead
flowers to adorn your hair
and also my songs
to brighten your soul.
