'mother will be seen sometime soonish' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'mother and her' is the wordplay.
'mother' becomes 'ma' (Ma is another word for mother or mum).
'and' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'her' becomes 'nana' ().
'ma'+'nana'='MANANA'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for manana that I've seen before include "Tomorrow in Spain" , "Tomorrow in Cadiz" , "sometime in the future" , "Tomorrow in Seville" , "Tommorow in Madrid" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
