The 11-year-old boy performed his song in a poignant setting, first sitting at a table writing a letter to his mother, then facing the camera in a shower of snowflakes. The Georgian lyrics of this song are a declaration of deep love from a child to his mother. They tell of the infinite gratitude towards the one who is described as a refuge, a source of comfort and light in dark times. The song also evokes the sacrifices of the mother, her unconditional tenderness and the importance of her smile, which illuminates and warms the child's life.
