I  wonder how a mother survives  when her son dies during  the war
She  must be proud  of  him  but she breaks down and cries
I  wonder how a mother decides  to give birth to a new  child of this folk
It  should be deed  of  honour  but she leaves him alone
No,  I'll be  a new mother  for new children
I  wonder how a mother prevents  her son to learn the art  of combat
It  is the soldier's duty!  But she leaves him no space
I  wonder how a mother asserts  that her son was accident  of love
‘cause  when he was  born/  she thought that she was  free  no more
These  days a "modern" mother  does not embody the image  of safe Earth
She  doesn't want  to hear  She doesn't want to embrace
No,  I'll be a new  mother  My son will grow and will  fight  as I'll have taught
My  girl will find  her  love  and later she will become
She  will be  a new mother  for new children
