I bow to you, Mother, I bow to you.
I bow to you, Mother, I bow to you.
Watered, fruitful, breeze-caressed, cool,
Watered, fruitful, breeze-caressed, cool,
Fields of green, dark-hued, Mother, Mother, Mother,
I bow to you, Mother, I bow to you.
I bow to you, Mother, I bow to you.

Moonlit nights, the heart swells with joy,
Trees adorned with blossoming flowers, beauty untold,
Smiling, speaking sweetly,
Giving bliss, bestowing blessings, Mother,
I bow to you, Mother, I bow to you.
I bow to you, Mother, I bow to you.
