I hear Your footsteps in my garden
the tinkle of Your taps on my window panes
But do I listen to Your calling?
Whilst entrenched in my ego desires
I ignore the truth of my life
Now in my twilight years
I will at last fling open my doors and windows
let the Creator's light infuse my whole being
and tread the path of finer peace and harmony.

As you walked me through my growing years
You have left a track of love and wisdom
Too immense for me to step into or match
Today I make my own impressions
To guide my children as yours guide me
Through the uncertainties of life
Ma, the marks you have left in my heart
Fill me with peace, joy and gratitude
Thanks to you, my soul sings and dances

Tapestry
Ma, as you walked me through my growing years
I heard His footsteps in the garden
but did I listen to His calling?
The tinkle of His taps on window panes
left a track of love and wisdom
too immense for me to step into or match
whilst entrenched in my ego desires.
Through the uncertainties of life
the marks you have left in my heart
fill me with joy and gratitude.
I tread the path of inner peace and harmony
making my own impressions
to guide my children as yours still guide me.
Thanks to you, now in my twilight years,
my soul sings and dances.
I fling open my doors and windows
to let the Creator’s light infuse my whole being
no longer ignoring the truth of my life.
