Lyrics
I feel your blood in my veins,
While your soft hands are caressing me.
Your voice is healing my pains,
Through its pure reassuring melody.
Like the shelter of a gingko,
Under which I may quietly stay,
In your warmth, I can just let go
All my fears are going away.
Your love always stands by me.
Full of worry, you’ve loved me,
You - gave me birth,
You carried and fed me
Like the sustaining earth.
I see your radiant smile,
And the dark rings that shadow your eyes.
Your sufferings instantly go by
As you cuddle your baby in your arms.
Without you, I won’t be alive.
Without you, how can I even survive ?
All nights long, when I use to cry,
How many dreams did you sacrifice ?
Your love always stands by me.
You taught me how to eat,
How to walk, how to speak
You’ve cured and corrected me,
You’ve shown the way to be.
Since the dawn of time until now,
Human beings and even animals,
Intuitively, mothers hold their child
Much more precious than their own lives.
To protect her baby from the flames,
In the fire, mother jumps instantly.
To *SAVE her fawn from the crocodile’s jaws,
Antelope gives her body suddenly.
Your love always stands by me.
How many burdens did you endure
To make your kid secured ?
Now I must take care of you,
That’s all I have to do.
