Mother who puts me to sleep

Dear mother who rocks me to sleep
How can I ever repay you
Sacrificing rest you console
My tears in middle of dark night

You feed and forgive and sing for me
While all you need is good sleep
O mother dear mother how can I
Ever repay you

When growing up I forget this
But see this same repeating
When my child's mother wakes up
To cajole to console my child's cry
O mother dear mother how can I
Forget that all you did for me
