Mother
Grandma tells your story
I know it wasn't easy
But you're still here
I see in your big eyes
A warrior woman
Hardworking
Friend of her children
To go to school with no lunch
You put your trust in Senhor Rês
You say you'll pay at the end of the month
Your sacrifices have no price
Oh mother, you raised me since I was a child
Oh mother, it's you who makes a woman
Oh mother, you challenge your fight with the world
Oh mother, you love like no other (like no other)
You tie a scarf on your head and go out
And you overcome
Strong pride in your grandmother
You don't fall, you don't give up
Food from your grandmother's pot
Strong wisdom
Food from your grandmother's pot
Rice with beans
Mother, my mother
I am your daughter
You are my queen
Love of my life, mother
Oh mother, you raised me since I was a child
Oh mother, it's you who makes a woman
Oh mother, you challenge your fight with the world
Oh mother, you love like no other (like no other)
Mother, my mother
I am your daughter
You are my queen
Love of my life, mother
Oh mother
