I held him in my arms that day
For the first time
We were sharing the bed together
For the first time
I looked into his eyes
I could see the love
The wonder, the awe
The fright, the joy
I waited for him to say the words
That I was longing to hear
For a very long time
The words that no one else had said before
But his eyes seemed to say
Wait for some time more
I waited and waited
But he just looked at me
And the look in his eyes seemed to say
Wait for some time more
We spent many a night together
I would hold him tight to my bosom
Waiting to hear those words
That no one said to me before
But his eyes seemed to say
Wait for some time more
He slept in my bed every night
Could not stay a night without me
I was his life, his world
His eyes would always follow me
I waited for many months more
Waited to hear those words
That no one said to me before
But his eyes seemed to say
Wait for some time more
And then came the day
When I heard him say
The words that no one said to me before
He said 'Mummy, Mummy'
At last I heard the words
At last I heard him say it
At last he called me 'Mummy'
The words that no one said to me before
This is for my first born, my son Mayur
Who celebrates his birthday
On 24th October
Happy birthday Mayur
God bless you
