"M" is for the million things she gave me,
<poem>
"O" means only that she's growing old,
"M" is for the million things she gave me,  
"T" is for the tears were shed to save me,
"O" means only that she's growing old,  
"H" is for her heart of purest gold, purest gold,
"T" is for the tears were shed to save me,  
"E" is for her eyes with lovelight shining,
"H" is for her heart of purest gold, purest gold,  
"R" means right, and right she'll always be,
"E" is for her eyes with lovelight shining,  
Put them all together, they spell "MOTHER,"
"R" means right, and right she'll always be,  
A word that means the world to me.}}
Put them all together, they spell "MOTHER,"  
A word that means the world to me.
</poem>
