With dignity you preserve the greatness of the word "woman", a symbol of tenderness, loyalty, kindness, moral purity, beauty and sublimity.
I extend my best wishes to the mothers who raised worthy sons for our Motherland. You showed unprecedented perseverance, self-sacrifice and strong will during the days of the Patriotic War. I bow my head to the mothers of the heroes who became shahids for the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan.
I wish each of you good health and family happiness. May the Almighty protect you and your families!"
