Merlin Thattil - Oh my dear Mom!

I tossed, I jumped
I had fun, lots of fun
Yes! I am in your womb;
It pained You, Oh my Mom!
But a smile curved on your cheek.

Nine months, ten days-
Gone without haste;
Oh! Time to come out
Anxious hours for you Mom.

Suffocation, struggles
It pained you a lot?
But I had no other way
To see you; So I come out.

I bid adieu
To your womb, my first home;
To see my dear Mom
To live in my second home.

Smiles all around,
Happiness seen around,
Rather exotic moment
To see strange faces.

Amidst strange faces
Ah! A familiar face
Mom, I need you,
Your warmth, Oh My Mom!

Time went by
like a sped arrow,
And you mould Me.
Into what I am now.

I fail to express,
My love for you
With a word of thanks
Or a precious gift.
All I have with Me
I give it to you-
Um' m h a a...
