My dear son,
No matter how much stress you give me,
The worry we suffer,
The confusion you cause,
We love you dearly,
Looking forward to the day you get well.

English Text For Le Thi Chinh, by Tuong Nguyen


Lien

 

Child in pain, ill, your parents worry for you
Hoping only that you will be healthy and strong.
Every time you fall ill my heart aches!
I pray to divine grace for you not to fall ill.
When a mother's heart is joyful, nothing compares to it.
My son, I know one thing:

When you feel pain, your mother feels sorrow. When you are well, your mother feels joy.
Lien (Translated by Tuong Nguyen and Duc Dau)
