It’s your special day But you know that , I don’t need one day to tell you That you are my world! The grass is always green And the sky is always blue, The way these are facts, Similarly my love for you too Is a simple fact of nature. I am what you made me, I owe all my successes to you, My past, present and future Are yours mother. I love you from the Bottom of my heart, My love for you Is deeper than the pacific, Brighter than the sunlight, Shinier than the stars, Purer than the ice, And higher than the Everest!
