Lyrics

For years now, every single night, we have cried for you, mother

From the pain of your distance we burn in a fever, mother

The place your warm hands had on our heads is empty, mother

To laugh from the bottom of the heart has become an impossible thing, mother

The years have gone by and our heart is still in mourning, mother

The calendar of the house stayed without you, without spring, mother

From every morning to every dusk, what is left is the tear, mother

The house is heavy-hearted still, in this dark night, mother

Come back and see that your children have grown old, mother

Come back and see that they have had their fill of living, mother

A house was left behind, and without you everyone was laid low, mother

Every one of your memories has become hard to breathe through, mother

For years the earth has held you in its arms, but your spirit is in this house, mother

Every tear we ever shed became a prayer to reach you, mother

Time went by, but your tenderness is still in our veins, mother

Death took only your body; your love stayed on forever, mother

Where are you, to take hold of this restless heart again, mother

Where are you, to laugh again at the grief of these days, mother

Where are you, so this waiting eye can sleep again, mother

Where are you, to shine again on this starless night, mother

Come back and see that your children have grown old, mother

Come back and see that they have had their fill of living, mother

A house was left behind, and without you everyone was laid low, mother

Every one of your memories has become hard to breathe through, mother

On the stone of your sleep, our tears are the keepsake we leave for mother

By the Friday morning I swear it: take us to our mother's side

By your pure earth I swear, and by that last look of yours

your love will not leave our hearts, not until the very end
