I'm so scared.
It gets scarier with every passing day.
This gloom, I'm afraid to walk another step in;
Silence of the ward, where I can hear my heart pounding.
"How are you feeling today?"
"I think I need to increase my dosage."
Every time I hear that, I forget about the world,
Fear chokes me, I'm going crazy.
But my mother, who bears with more fear and pain,
I know you need me now more than ever, so don't you worry,
I'll be by your side right now.
Mum, don't cry, please.
Mum, don't hide your fears.
Mum, mum, mum,
Don't cry for you and me.
Mum, you were by my side, always;
Right now, mum,
I'll be by your side all the time.
When I was little, I sometimes caressed my mother's eyebrows until I fell asleep;
Even if your hair starts to fall out, my mother's face will still be beautiful.
When I was scared, I was comforted in my mother's arms;
Now, whenever fear twists your mind,
Hold my hand tight.
I want to go to the seaside together again, mum;
I want to laugh without care like we used to, really.
Eternal gratitude for playing the role of both parents,
I don't know how to express it in this world.
I'm afraid I'll run out of time at this moment,
This moment when I have so many things to say;
But my mother, who faced unfair difficulties,
You can rely on me now, this is my promise,
Like I used to rely on my mother when I was a child.
If we stick together, we'll be stronger.
Even if I'm scared to death, I'm not gonna say a word,
So you don't have to worry.
Mum, mum, don't cry.
Mum, mum, don't die.
I still can't let go of your hand like a child.
