Mama (English Version)

Mama, oh please don't cry because your boy must leave you
Mama, oh please don't let the separation grieve you
Your little boy is growing
But don't be down when he's going
Nothing can ever replace
The warmth of your tender embrace
Mama, the day will come we'll be together once more
Oh my dear mama, then we'll be happy and as gay as before

When evening shadows are falling
And lovely daytime is past
Then I'm the hours recalling
When in your arms I did rest
Mama, I don't want to see your tears
Think of the happiest years

Mama, oh please don't cry because your boy must leave you
Mama, oh please don't let the separation grieve you
Your little boy is growing
But don't be down when he's going
Nothing can ever replace
The warmth of your tender embrace
Mama, the day will come we'll be together once more
Oh my dear mama, then we'll be happy and as gay as before
Mama, mama
