OH MOTHER!

Farouk Asvat
Mother, your child is late
What do you mean
He is late?
Mother, your child is no longer with
us
What do you mean
She is no longer with you?
Mother, your child has left us
What do you mean
He has left you?
Mother, you can fetch your child
What do you mean
I can fetch her?
Mother, your child has been released
What do you mean
He has been released?
Mother, your child has been
discharged
What do you mean
She has been discharged?
Mother, your child has passed on
What do you mean
He has passed on?
Mother, oh mother!
How can I say it?
Your child is dead
