Good song is pleasant to hear, great song can move our heart. This song is one of my most favorite Mandarin Song, Mama by Vanness Wu. I cried when I first hear (and understand the meaning) this song. This song has touched my heart, and it remains as one of the best song I've ever had the pleasure to hear.
Māmā妈妈
这首歌是要谢谢我妈妈的辛苦，她的累，她掉眼泪
With this song I want to thank my mother for her hard work, her weariness, and the tears she's shed
