Mother Helen

I left you as a little child And I promised to leave for just a while But mama so it goes Things change We grow And even so I thought that you should know When the world demands my best In your arms I long to rest When they put me to the test I need your sweet caress I returned as a bright young girl But there was so much more I had yet to learn But you took the time You showed me my own way That is why you see the queen I am today When the world demands my best In your arms I long to rest When they put me to the test I need your sweet caress Mother I feel you I need you Sent Lici sé an joli péyi Sah mwen tan tout gwan moun la ka di Mother I feel you Oh I need you Oh mama I'll shine for you to this whole world And of your beauty they all shall learn They will understand I was born to be great And all the people of this land 758 Oh they tried to steal my best And they put me to the test In your arms I found my rest Mother, Helen of the West Oh Mother I love you
