Pity I didn't die as a baby. If I had died as a baby, I never would have suffered. I am the loneliest. Pity I didn't die in my cradle. If I had died in my cradle, I wouldn't have suffered. Pity the baby birds, Left without a nest. Pity a baby, Left without a mother One's fate, One cannot change it. My departed mother, Nothing can bring her back
