Besarnya pengorbanan seorang ibu

Seorang insan yg tidak akan terbalas segala jasa-jasanya walaupun harta dan nyawa dipertaruhkan. Insan yang sanggup berkorban apa sahaja demi anak-anak tercinta sehinggakan Allah meletakkan tarafnya sebegitu tinggi, iaitu selepas Allah Ta'ala dan Rasulullah. Sehinggakan syurga itu diletakkan di bawah telapak kakinya. Bukannya secara fizikal syurga itu letaknya dibawah telapak kakinya, ia hanyalah suatu simbolik sahaja. Dengan erti kata lain, untuk mencapai syurga Allah yang tidak tergambar dek imaginasi kita manusia biasa ini, ketaatan terhadap insan ini adalah kunci utamanya. Dialah insan yang teristimewa: IBU/MAK/MAMA/UMI.

Who should I give my love to?
My respect and my honour to?
Who should I pay good mind to
After Allah and Rasulullah?
Comes your mother
Who next? Your mother
Who next? Your mother
And then your father

Cause who used to hold you
And clean you and clothe you?
Who used to feed you
And always be with you?
When you were sick
Stay up all night
Holding you tight?
That right no other My mother

Who should I take good care of
Giving all my love?
Who should I think the most of
After Allah and Rasulullah?
Comes your mother
Who next? Your mother
Who next? Your mother
And then your father

Cause who used to hear you
Before you could talk?
Who used to hold you
Before you could walk?
And when you fell
Who'd pick you up?
Clear your cut?
No one but Your mother
My mother

Who should I stay right close to?
Listen most to?
Never say no to
After Allah and Rasulullah?
Comes your mother
Who next? Your mother
Who next? Your mother
And then your father
Cause who used to hug you
And buy you new clothes?
Comb your hair and blow your nose?
And when you cries who wiped your tears?
Knows your fears?
Who really cares?
My mother

Say Alhamdulillah
Thank you Allah
Thank you Allah
For my mother
