English Translation Lyrics: Naoki Takada Music: Naoki Takada & Shintaro Growth Izutsu Hi Mother, Dear Mother, how are you doing? Sorry I haven t called recently, I m getting by okay

*Your body is small and so are your hands White hairs are mixed in and you ve grown more genial But to me you re still bigger than anything, stronger than anyone I want to tell my kids about this love that supported me Even though I grow impatient when I m near you When you re far away from me I grow lonely That s who you are to me, you can cut through any problem and solve it And you have the most patience and toughness of anyone I know You would always be concerned over my well-being before your own Cooking, doing the laundry, cleaning, raising a child You even worked during your free time You would only require things from the lowest places I didn t understand even though it was so obvious It wasn t until I started living by myself that I understood Whenever I think of how much you ve accomplished And how hard it must have been, I feel like I can try my best today (Repeat*) I d say, Wake me up at seven a.m. And you would wake me up right on time But I would be unfair to you And say the words shut up while I was still half-asleep This was the daily routine You never made one tired face And woke me up every day Warmer and more accurately than any alarm clock But then one day I skipped school and said, I don t wanna go I wouldn t leave my futon and you stood in front of me Hid your face with both hands and cried loudly I also felt sad and cried At that time I blamed myself wondering, How could I be so stupid? Your body is small and so are your hands White hairs are mixed in and you ve grown more genial But to me you re still bigger than anything, stronger than anyone I give you thanks for this love that supported me, my mother I know there s nothing more painful in the world Than a parent burying their child So I ll make sure it never happens Even if I only live one second longer than you I ll make sure of it I m glad I m your child I m glad you re my mother And that won t ever change It won t ever change for all time Because I am the very image of you (Repeat*) Be my mother forever Be well forever You still have one more job left to do And that s to accept your son s love and respect for you
