Much love and deep compassion, oh dear mother!
Bearing the weight of storms and tempests that rage
Under the scorching sun, your body is parched and withered
In the pouring rain, your wings of strength fall and sway

Anxiously hoping for your husband's safe return
Forever beautiful and radiant, the wife holds firm
The fragrant scent of pink lotus blooms on the vast pond.

Dear mother, I apologize a thousand times
Half my life, I haven't repaid your kindness to my parents
Meals and sleep are all I have
In life, every home is the same
You still see me as a child
Still nurturing, never resting
My debt to you, mother, is lifelong!
I owe you so much, a debt I can never repay
On Mother's Day, from the depths of my heart, I write
A gesture, like a flower
A gift to my beloved mother to cherish
The heart of a child, only you truly understand.

In the pouring rain
The way back is slippery

The burden of worries
The thin raincoat

Waiting for father to come
Surrounded by joy

To ensure I get to school on time
Mom gave birth to me
Worked hard for me
I silently promise to love
To be obedient and diligent.

1. Poem for Mother: My Mother, by Nguyen Dung

My mother... silver hair kissed by dew
Aged yet still... endlessly cherishing her naive child
Like the stream... of sweet childhood milk
Awaiting for bananas... stored for my consumption
My father... furrowed brow imprinted
Fragrance of ripe rice... hardship under the sun and rain
Like bearing the sun at noon
Rice porridge distant... sparse road alone
Tranquil thatched roof wrinkles peacefully
A small family... burdened with a child's love
Like rivers and mountains never worn
A thousand-mile journey... unwavering resolve
Homegrown sweet sugarcane waiting
Green rice fields under sun and rain... now covered in dew
My mother aged like fragrant bananas
Like sticky rice as one with sugarcane syrup

2. Poem for October 20th: Scent of Rice, by Nguyen Dung

Love of rice fragrance... rich in the stream of sweet milk
Mother toils... day and night under the rain and sun
Salty sweat... Mother silently, quietly endures
Lush breeze of the field... fragrant rice flowers
In tears... Mother's sweat serves as the rice bowl
I vow to become... the ripe golden rice fragrance
Fragrance of a myriad roses
Cannot match the intense motherly love within me

3. Poem for Mother: My Beloved Mother, by Hoa Diep Le

Beside you, Mother, happiness abounds
No fear of wind gusts or torrential rain
Days lacking Father's shadow
Yet to me, you are the sun
Mother toils tirelessly day and night
Shoulders burdened, but no complaints uttered
Tiny tears trace down your cheeks
Missing Father, Mother's love grows stronger
Mother swallows bitterness, pillows wet with tears
Quietly living for the child's complete joy
Storms and tempests may bury
But they can't steal the dreams of my lost mother

* Poem 1: Returning to Mother, compiled

Last night, I dreamt again
Of returning to visit Mother, tears streaming down
The corner of the yard still has the apricot tree
The bamboo fence, the jasmine-covered path to the bamboo gate
The clay walls, the earthen floor, the thatched roof
The old familiar village, the old home
The towering betel nut trees lined up
The bamboo dust swirling in the gentle breeze
Meeting Mother at high noon
Joyful, sorrowful, tears like rain
'Mother!...' Stop crying now!
Mother loves me, Mother's slender figure
Turning to face, hands shaping
Mother embraces me, Mother's longing days
Countless days Mother waits, Mother gazes
Mother waits for me, Mother waits endlessly for my return
Suddenly waking from the dream
'Mother! I will return this spring'
Mother grows old amidst the swaying wind
Mother bears hardships day and night
Every year, Mother ages a bit more
Worn-out feet, tired knees circling the market of life
Poverty clings relentlessly to my Mother
Taking away Mother's youth
A life of hardship, of sorrow
Gritting teeth, enduring early mornings and late nights
Wholeheartedly, all for the sake of the child...

* Poem 2: Coming Home, by Nga Vu

Returning home, hearing the river breeze
Oh dear, Mother's voice echoes at noon
The sun drifts over sparse leaves
Dripping down as if just fallen

Father has been gone for so long - into the sky
Whose shadow leans down, overflowing with love?
Mother worries about the rice fields in the night dew
Worries about the days of counting grains - at the end of the harvest road

The humble kitchen yearns for family shadows
Mother hears the warm straw by the house eaves
Outside, the mustard greens have turned golden
Wanderer's footsteps fade in the rain

Mother, the moon tilts gently,
Our home, is it still there? Ah, not yet - I return
Mother smiles warmly, the river mesmerized,
Tears well up - shadows of our village follow you
Mother, the wind whispers beyond the hill...

* Poem 3: Mother still waits where you quietly depart, by Kieu Trang

Now mother still goes back and forth
In the place where I let go of my vow to be far away
The poor village, the silver earth, hosts flowers
So many beauties fade into the night
Father sits spreading a mat by the doorstep
Counting stars, scooping wind to forget his fate
Mother rises before dawn
Following the darkness alone across the river
The deserted poor village, the empty fields
Mother still cultivates on the waves of our homeland
The boat tilts returning early and late
Proudly sinking into the hat's rim, glancing askance
I borrow the guise of learning
Avoiding the river, avoiding the fragile figure mother rows
Now the village is no longer poor
The river, once busy, follows the rhythm of bridges
I cherish a hundred unspoken sorrows
But have not yet understood the deep plight of people
Now mother still gazes into the distance
Where the day I quietly leave behind.

* Poem 4: Within Mother's Song, by Truong Nam Huong

Childhood filled with fairy tales
Mother's words sweeten the river
Guiding me along with the country
Dancing to the rhythm of folk songs.
I find in mother's song
White storks on green fields
I love the golden squash flowers
'Chicken pecks at lime leaves'.
Clumps of bamboo, legendary
Lulling words twist betel leaves
Mother's moon in her girlhood
Still fragrant with areca blossom.
I hear the rhythmic sound of the mortar
Mother sits winnowing rice, lulling me to sleep
Heaven, no thunder, no storm
Let mother's pot be fuller.
I hear the rustling of rice waves
Lulling words turning into rice grains
Loving mother in a lifetime of hardship
Still rich with lullabies.
Mother's clothes worn, silver faded
Brown fabric with frayed stitches
Loving mother in a life bitter
Why do mother's words still smell sweet?
Time passes, mother's hair
A white color to the point of nausea
Mother's back slowly bending
For me to grow taller each day.
Mother, in your song
Life's entirety is revealed
Lullabies sow wings for me
When grown, I'll fly away.

* Poem 5: Mother's Love, by Luu Hai

Mother always beside me, illuminating
Rose-colored dreams illuminate tomorrow
Happiness now becomes achievement
The love's effort transcends future magnificence
It encompasses all love's zeal and sacrifice
For me, she tries to retain her virtuous heart
Father nowadays is no longer present
His thin body, small frame withered by the hour
The joy does not match the expectations
Lonely scenes for the sake of one's own child
Praying for the sky to shine at dawn
The joyous family is lovingly cherished
Living genuinely, all things are good
Despite storms, the house collapses, and rains fall
The cold wind sows chilly winter
Mother worries about early afternoon naps
Hardship still comes to find her
Looking for warmth in a bowl of rice
The white shirt and pants
Going to school, following the stream of words
I deeply express my wishes
Autumn arrives... lingering with you
The crimson rose is still fresh
Congratulations to Mother's everlasting smile.
