This is the song, that many Chinese in the world, has sung during their life. It is the song that we sing during mother day for our beloved mother. Despite some of us have go through process of aging , the song still linger in our heart. It is a touching song, and it is simple praising of the mother, related closely to our heart. It is evergreen song, like the love of a mother......

The original singer of the song is Xiao Fong Fong(蕭芳芳), an award winning actress, now with hearing impairment; but still active in the social work in Hong Kong for the abused children. She is not only good in singing, she is a good actress, and has a beautiful heart.

世上只有媽媽好
有媽的孩子像個寶
投進媽媽的懷抱　幸福享不了

要是他知道　夢裡也會笑
