Thelonious Sphere Monk (, October 10, 1917 – February 17, 1982) was an American jazz pianist and composer. He had a unique improvisational style and made numerous contributions to the standard jazz repertoire, including "'Round Midnight", "Blue Monk", "Straight, No Chaser", "Ruby, My Dear", "In Walked Bud", and "Well, You Needn't". Monk is the second-most-recorded jazz composer after Duke Ellington.Monk's compositions and improvisations feature dissonances and angular melodic twists and are consistent with his unorthodox approach to the piano, which combined a highly percussive attack with abrupt, dramatic use of switched key releases, silences, and hesitations.

I can think of at least a thousand words
Nut none of them are equal your worth
First woman I fell in love with
Bright as the wings of an angel softer than scarlet kisses
Well at least that's how I see you...I see through
Every single thing you ever taught me as a child
And I'm thankful for your prayers when I was out in the wild
Because there ain't no church in the jungle so yeah it's been a while
Since I told you what's really up on my mind
Truth never ever could I pretend to find
A stone deeper than sapphires or darker than blood diamonds
That's equivalent to your beauty just like a lost island
Flawless you captivate my imagination
It's more than respecting you mama... this is admiration
An encore forever bigger than ovations
Justification from Heaven you're my gratification
You know me better than anybody who knows me
And even when they drove me to insanity you showed me
Tranquility is a powerful weapon
A blessing of selfless I inherited your humbleness
Mama forgive me I couldn't buy you a purse
As a present for Mother's Day so instead I give this verse
Because this is all that I have and it's my expression of truth
And I hope it's the perfect to gift to let you know I love you

And I love you mama
And I love you mama
Sing along
One time for the mothers of the world
Two time for the mothers of the world
And I love you mama
And I love you mama
Sing along
One time for the mothers of the world
Two time for the mothers of the world
