You taught us love in how to fight, you gave us strength, you gave us might. A stronger person would be hard to find, and in your heart, you were always kind. You fought for us in one way or the other, not just as a daughter, not just a mother, for all of us you gave your best. Now the time has come for you to rest. So go in peace, you’ve earned your sleep, your love in our hearts, we’ll enterally keep.
