So I carry you with me, in all that I do,  
In moments of joy, in struggles I pursue.  
Though the world feels colder, and shadows may creep,  
In the heart of my memories, forever you'll sleep.  

Rest now, sweet mother, your journey is whole,  
Your legacy lives on, deep within my soul.  
In the love that we shared, I find strength to go on,  
For in every sunrise, I know you’re not gone.
