前日雨哗哗，
                                                             秋湖没了妈！
                                                             悲从心底起，
                                                             哀思满天涯。

                                                             一哭我妈妈，
                                                             自幼孤苦娃。
                                                             十二失父母，
                                                             与弟守残家。

                                                             二哭我妈妈，
                                                             十三去纺纱；
                                                             防寒搓小手，
                                                             充饥啃黄瓜。

                                                             三哭我妈妈，
                                                             十五成军伢；
                                                             云门山脚下，
                                                             孤身把营扎。

                                                             四哭我妈妈，
                                                             年轻高血压；
                                                             几度三O一，
                                                             无力育儿娃。

                                                             五哭我妈妈，
                                                             复员回长沙；
                                                             人印做装订，
                                                             手酸腰累塌。

                                                             六哭我妈妈，
                                                             辛苦俭持家；
                                                             有钱先买米，
                                                             难得肉塞牙。

                                                             七哭我妈妈，
                                                             为人不掺假；
                                                             夜半求医护，
                                                             抱病也出发。

                                                             八哭我妈妈，
                                                             退休方南下；
                                                             为减儿负担，
                                                             出钱付早茶。

                                                             九哭我妈妈，
                                                             古稀病魔压；
                                                             伞杖喘声重，
                                                             寝食难安暇。

                                                             十哭我妈妈，
                                                             情恸怎表达？
                                                             新洲风飘冷，
                                                             梧桐雪飞花！
