当年 还没张开惺忪双眼 是谁轻轻擦拭我的脸
日夜付出 没有怨言
然而我太小 不相信是为我好
关心让我逃跑 只想长大不再被打扰

事情开始变了模样不能掌控
小小的我无法理解他的冲动
大人的世界好不同

妈妈的爱 家就是有你的地方
你给的爱 慌乱的心不再流浪
妈妈的爱 要如何用一生去还
再多的 拥抱和陪伴也还不完

今天 经历了多一点 慢慢了解一切
终于懂得现实的危险
而你的信念 鼓励著我向前 追逐梦想那一天
离家多远 你总把我放心里面

世界太大 充满谎话 真真假假
独自一人 反复练习你的话
长大了我却好害怕

妈妈的爱 家就是有你的地方
你给的爱 慌乱的心不再流浪
妈妈的爱 但愿能陪我到永久
到最后 谁能像你毫无保留
曾犯了错 多少次你仍选择原谅
温柔地说 孩子你不曾让我失望
如今我带著你的爱前往
没有到不了的方向

妈妈的爱 要如何用一生去还
再多的 倾听和温暖 拥抱和陪伴
也还不完

English Translation:
I still remember the gentle face that greeted me each morning,
Her selfless giving, never complaining.
Too young to realize that all she did was for my own good,
A mother’s concern mistaken as my frustrations, all I wanted was to grow up and be free.

Years passed, life got complicated,
The little me could never understand his impulses.
An adult’s world is just so different.

A mother’s love, home is where you are.
The love you give warms my wandering heart.
A mother’s love, how will I ever repay in this life,
No amount of hugs or days spent together can ever return the love you gave.

Today, having learnt from life’s experiences, I finally understand
The harshness of reality.
However, your faith always leads me forward, encouraging me to pursue my dreams.
No matter how far I may be, you always keep me in your heart.

The world is a scary place, full of lies and disguise.
Whenever I feel alone, I find myself recalling your guidance.
Now as a grown up, I still have many fears.

A mother’s love, home is where you are.
The love you give warms my wandering heart.
I wish a mother’s love will stay with me forever,
Because in the end, there is no who loves me like you do.

Regardless of my mistakes, you always forgive.
The reassuring voice that says, “my child, you have never let me down”.
Now I am ready to go forward with your love,
There is nothing that I cannot conquer.
