Mothers and children from long ago,
Mothers and children from far away,
So many of them, being together,
It's always been that way

Some of them lived in dusty castles,
Some of them lived where monkeys play
Each of them caring for the other,
Just as they do today

Sharing a story, playing a game,
Looking alike, well, almost the same
In cities, and jungles, and deserts, and farms,
See all the mothers with kids in their arms

In happy times, sad times,
Hungry times, glad times
There always have been, there always will be
Mothers and children, being together,
Just like you and me
