Mother
How are you today ?
Hope you are fine
Enjoying the whistle of birds
The blowing of the wind
Mother
How are you today ?
Hope you will be glad
To see me in your arms
After never have met you
Mother than six years
I wished will come
But not enough money
To buy ticket
Mother
How are you today
I am now on the way
From Padang to Tarutung
In a slow and full passengers”s bus
Hope I will meet you tomorrow morning
I am longing for cucumber and weet potato
That you have planted
Kampong chicken that you cooked
With nice spice
