Verse 1:

Once, my life was full of vibrant hues,
Sometimes laughing, sometimes tears would ensue.
I wasn’t afraid to cry back then,
Do you know why?
There were warm, wrinkled hands to wipe my tears dry.

Pre-Chorus:

I felt I could conquer the world,
I was so brave, so bold.
Because she was there, always pushing me forward,
Clapping for me, hugging me with pride.
An old woman, sometimes scolding,
But always beautiful and strong in my eyes.

Chorus:

And one day, like a promise that must be kept,
She... left me, and the pain I felt,
The sky that was bright turned grey and dark.
Mami... I couldn’t cry when you departed.
Not because I didn’t love you,
But because I felt lifeless too.
My soul left with you.

Verse 2:

But the universe won’t let me rest,
Or mourn the loss that I detest.
Mami, I miss you, oh, how I miss you.
Mami, I long for you, so true.
Mami, I miss you...

Pre-Chorus:

I felt I could conquer the world,
I was so brave, so bold.
Because she was there, always pushing me forward,
Clapping for me, hugging me with pride.
An old woman, sometimes scolding,
But always beautiful and strong in my eyes.

Chorus:

And one day, like a promise that must be kept,
She... left me, and the pain I felt,
The sky that was bright turned grey and dark.
Mami.. I couldn’t cry when you departed.
Not because I didn’t love you,
But because I felt lifeless too.
My soul left with you.

Bridge:

Mami, I dream of your embrace,
Your smile, your warmth, your grace.
But I must carry on, through night and day,
With this longing that won’t go away.

Chorus:

And one day, like a promise that must be kept,
She... left me, and the pain I felt,
The sky that was bright turned grey and dark.
mami... I couldn’t cry when you departed.
Not because I didn’t love you,
But because I felt lifeless too.
My soul left with you.

Outro:
