Free our mothers in Burma!!!

ဓာတ္ပံု.... ကရင္ေလး(ေဒါနေျမ)

“May I reward your affection, Mother”

May I cure your serious ailments

With my diligence and industry, Mother.



Give me ability

that tempt those who

disregard the debt of gratitude, Mother.



I dare to face

any oncoming danger…



It is no peculiar for me

to think of dying in any way.

I know all will pass away in life, Mother.



You all will be happy surely

When my dreams come true.



I pay no mind to their

condemnation,

ridicule,

hate,or

defamation, Mother.



I long passionately for the praise

that I am your true and worthy daughter, Mother.



I wish to be only a person

who deserve your gratitude, Mother.



Aung San Suu Kyi

Hundreds of bees in the purple clover,
Hundreds of butterflies on the lawn,
But only one mother the wide world over.
