私だけの天使 [Watashi dake no Tenshi] [English translation]

I'm done with work

And I'm going home

In your pajamas, you rush,

With kindness in your overflowing smile,

To greet me

'I'm sorry

I can keep waiting forever

Though I'll surely feel lonely'

But when I don't show my tears

I'm smiling

Your adorable face, like an angel

Is a sparkling treasure

In Mama's precious world

'You're exhausted, huh?

You're always troubled

Let me rub your shoulders'

With those small hands, you do your best

To give me love

Because you're here

Mama does this...

She goes and gives it her best at work each day

I promise, Mama would put her life on the line

To protect you

It's my purpose in life

What's most amazing

Is that you were born into this world

But when I don't show my tears

I'm smiling

Your adorable face, like an angel

I promise, Mama would put her life on the line

To protect you

It's my purpose in life

What's most amazing

Is that you were born into this world
