“The Immortal Love You Give”

For Mother

“The Immortal Love You Give”

How invaluable you are!Your thoughts,

Your words,Your deeds:

They all unite to form,

“The Immortal Love You Give”

An affectionate personality of gold.

Most precious and exceptionally rare.

How invaluable You are!Over the years,

We have felt your deep,Devoted concern.

“The Immortal Love You Give”

Flowing like the ebbing of the tide.

How invaluable You are!Your consideration,

Your forgiveness,Your forbearance,And your clever,

Continuing self-sacrifice:

“The Immortal Love You Give”

These compassionate qualities disperse themselves,

As the rich, crimson brilliance of the rose,

How invaluable You are!You love with an intangible love.

An indelible love.

“The Immortal Love You Give”

A priceless love.Your heart bleeds with love for

us,Even as the Sun desperately

craves to shine.And shower us with its warm,Sympathetic drops of golden

rays.
