My Child
My child my child
Listen to me with rapt attention
To the thoughts of my heart
So they can make great impact
I'll pray for you; k'ori ba o se
Whatever you decide, I'll guide you through
Through thick and thin, I'll never leave you
I'll pray for you; k'o ribatise
....this will not happen as long as I live
Whatever you ask for I'll give
'Geo', 'Gra', and 'Phy', I'll buy
It won't be easy but I'll try
Will you decide to be stubborn?
Perhaps to her who went through a lot
So much pain for you to be born
I'll scold you but Won't Leave a spot
I'll love you as long as I live
My child in whom I'll be well pleased
And I'll always remember
That I'm just a custodian; all things put together.
All I do now is for you
The writings, singing and even playing
That you may one day smile
And say 'I love you'
