IBU

Ibu..Setiap langkahmu, kau tinggalkan jejak kasihmu
Setiap pelukmu, menebarkan kehangatan cinta
Tulusnya cintamu, seputih kasih yang abadi.
Ibu...Kau Malaikat hidupku
Yang setiap langkahmu, selalu teriring perjuanganmu
Membesarkanku, menjadikanku seseorang yang berarti

Ibu....

Kaulah cahaya yang lenyapkan gelapku

Kaulah api yang hangatkan dinginku

Kaulah air yang sejukkan panasku

Kaulah mentari yang terangkan petangku

Kaulah rembulan yang menjadi pahlawan malamku

Ibu.. kasihmu tulus tak perlu di tebus

Cintamu teduh tak butuh di sepuh

oamu sejuta lebih mustajab ketimbang doa seribu kekasih.

Terima kasih atas segalanya

Jasa Ibu akan selalu terkenang
