Of course I've seen the other complete text. Hence my comment.
I prefer the second stanza focusing on mother's strength, tenacity and resolve. she is strong in matters of the heart.
the first stanza portrays her as domineering and patronizing. the imagery of Asia, Rabelais, seismic threaten and mother seems to be overbearing over others that follow rather reluctantly like dogs.
generally a nice short poem paying homage to mother.
