I never, do tell you,
But I am frightened by the darkness, mother
Usually I, don't show,
But I do care about you, mother
You know it all, isn't it mother?
You know it all, my mother.

Don't leave me like this in the crowd
Such that I am not able to come back to the home.
Don't send me so far
Such that you don't remember about me at all.
Am I that bad, mother?
That bad... my mother?

Whenever... father...
Quickly... swing me, mother...
My eyes... seek for you...
I do think this... you will come to hold me, mother...
I don't... tell him this...
But I do... get scared, mother
On the face... I don't let this come
In the heart... I get frightened, mother
You know it all, isn't it mother?
You know it all, my mother.

I never, do tell you,
But I am frightened by the darkness, mother
Usually I, don't show,
But I do care about you, mother
You know it all, isn't it mother?
You know it all, my mother.
