Looking After My Mother

I’ve been staying with my mother
At eight until the time of seven,
I have a respite as my brother
Looks after her with his other.
My mother believes in heaven
And used to teach Christianity,
She believes that we are brethren,
In a Biblical sense of sensibility. 

I treat all as sisters and brothers,
We should be respectful to others
As we all share earth together
Braving the stormy weather.
My mother is persevering
With her hip that is aching.
