Your Mother

Your Mother - Rashid A. Bhikha

Who should I give my love to

My respect and my honour to

Who should I pay good mind to

After Allah

And rasulullah

Comes your mother

Who next your mother

Who next your mother

And then your father

'Cause who used to hold you

And clean you and clothe you

Who used to feed you

And always be with you

When you were sick

Stay up all night

Holding you tight

That's right no other

My mother

Who should I take good care of

Giving all my love

Who should I think the most of

After Allah

And rasulullah

Comes your mother

Who next your mother

Who next your mother

And then your father

'Cause who used to hear you before you could talk

Who used to hold you

Before you could walk

And when you fell who picked you up

Clean your cut

No one but your mother

My mother

Who should I stay right close to

Listen most to

Never say no to

After Allah

And rasulullah

Comes your mother

Who next your mother

Who next your mother

And then your father

'Cause who used to hug you

And buy you new clothes

Comb your hair

And blow your nose

And when you cry

Who wiped your tears

Knows your fears

Who really cares

My mother

Say alhamdulillah

Thank you Allah

Thank you Allah

For my mother
