Ballad of A Mother's Heart by Jose La Villa Tierra

The night was dark, for the moon was young And the stars were asleep and rare;The clouds were thick, yet Youth went out To see his Maiden fair. "Dear One," he pleaded as he kneltBefore her feet, in tears,"My love is true; why have you keptMe waiting all these years? "The maiden looked at him unmoved,It seemed, and whispered low:"Persistent Youth, you have to proveBy deeds your love is true." "There's not a thing I would not doFor you, Beloved," said he.

"Then go," said she, "to your mother dear And bring her heart to me.

"Without another word,Youth left and went to his mother dear. And opened her breast and took her heart.He did not shed a tear! Then back to his Maiden fair he ran,Unmindful of the rain;But his feet slipped and he fell down And loud he groaned with pain! Still in his hand he held the prize That would win his Maiden's hand; And he thought of his mother dear So kind, so sweet, so fond.
