When I was younger,
No, not very old
You sat beside me and spoke of the world
You told me about all the places you been
With love in your heart and a warm Irish grin
The past is a place
All your dreams they take root
And grow through beside you
Blossoming fruit
Now comes the time
To reap what you’ve sown
and enjoy this meadow -
This family you’ve grown

Born by the sea
Came to help others be healthy and free

A beautiful thing
Muesli and sherry and clip on earrings
As I get older I’m hoping to be
Half of the woman I see before me
to know what’s important
To trust in my gut
To listen to others
And share what I’ve got
Cos if there is one thing
You have taught me
It’s that love is the compass on life’s journey.

Marie, grandmother were never your names
To all those who love you it’s Ibu the same
And when I’m a mother I’ll think of the way
That you weren’t just Ibu to those with your name

Born by the sea
Came to help others be healthy and free
