Single mother, I adore you
Marveling at the strength of yours!
Struggling all alone, for the sake of your child
Taking on more than you could possibly bear
Shuffles off to work each day
Wondering whether they would ever increase the rupees in her pay.
Single mother, I adore you
Carefully juggling your career and motherhood
Searching every work, your body could even bear
Meanwhile, the child’s father doesn’t even really care
Yes! You abandoned the little girl just after twenty days of birth
Leaving her all alone here in earth
Single mother, I adore you
I admire your strength and drive
You’re strong during the day, but spend lonesome sleepless nights!
I am tucked into bed and kissed goodnight
But daddy was never there to turn off the light.
Supermom, you sacrifice your happiness and raise me right
Helps meet all my ends even when money gets too tight.
Single mother, I adore you
When pain and sickness makes me cry
You gaze upon my heavy eye
I can never repay you, mother
But I promise the world will surely see me standing high on my own
Making you proud of seeing your princess be a queen on the throne.
My single mother, I adore you
Oh! How I love you.
