My Mum is a Wonder

A young child thinks about the work of his wonderful Mum: greeting him with a smile in the morning, teaching him to pray, looking after him when he is ill, and much more.

When I am sick and hot in bed,
Who stays with me and strokes my head?
Who leaves her bed for another
To comfort me, make me better?
