    A little girl who was asked where her home was replied: "Where mother is."

                                I saw the sign, I saw the sign.

I saw a little girl

one day

She stood against a wall near the bakery

She was alone

and so

I asked her,

"Is your mum around?"

"No," she replied

I wanted to know

if she had anywhere to go, a home

And she told me

Home was where her mother was

[taxis are heard honking] [people are crossing the street]

I looked at her

"Where is she?"

This little girl smiled, flicking her brown hair off her shoulder

She kept her mum in her heart.

               City lights are dazzling at this time.
