Amor de Madre

It was the first voice that whispered my name
It was the first hand that touched my skin
I perceived her tenderness even while in her womb
I knew she loved me before I was born

With waiting and patience, she cared for my arms
And she stopped being herself to be for me
My pain would calm down if I was in her arms
She would wrap me in her chest and make me sleep

And now that time has passed and I have lived so much
I can understand
That I have had a thousand loves
And nothing compares to that woman

Mother's love
That holds no grudge, that does not forget
That would give her soul and her life
Without any doubt, only for me

Mother's love
The one that suffers if she sees me suffering
The one that knows what I am feeling
The purest that can exist

Today I want you to hear something I want to say
That my song is for you

Today I see you tired, maybe because of the years
Today I see in your eyes that you still believe in love
And if I do something wrong, there is never a lack of scolding
For you, I am a child who never grew up

And now that time has passed and I have lived so much
I can understand
That I have had a thousand loves
And nothing compares to that woman

Mother's love
That holds no grudge, that does not forget
That would give her soul and her life
Without any doubt, only for me

Mother's love
The one that suffers if she sees me suffering
The one that knows what I am feeling
The purest that can exist

Today I want you to hear something I want to say
That my song is for you
Today I want you to hear something I want to say
That my song is for you
