Bana Bandi (My Beautiful Daughters)
A song made by Chonta
Yoh... my beautiful girls...
Papa is here, singing for you today.
Bana bandi, my angels, my pride.
Listen closely, hear my heart beat for you.
Ayy, Yo Maps style, let's go.
From the very first day that I held you close,
I knew you were the ones I would love the most.
Looking in your eyes, I see the rising sun,
My beautiful daughters, my number one.
You bring so much joy to this family,
Like the sweet waters of the Zambezi.
No matter where you go, no matter where you roam,
Just know that in my heart you will find your home.
I pray for your steps as you grow each day,
May blessings and favor never slip away.
Mayo! See how my girls are growing so fine,
Forever and ever, you are mine.
Oh my beautiful daughters, bana bandi,
You are the light that shines so bright for me.
Natotela Lesa for this gift so sweet,
You make my life so whole, so complete.
I will protect you, stand by your side,
With so much love and so much pride.
My daughters, my joy, my shining stars,
No matter the distance, wherever you are.
Oh my beautiful daughters, bana bandi,
You are the light that shines so bright for me.
I see you laughing, playing in the yard,
And I swear to protect you, I will stand guard.
In this crazy world, don't you ever fear,
Your papa is always standing very near.
Learn to be strong, walk with your head high,
Reach for the stars way up in the sky.
You are royalty, don't let them tell you lies,
I see the wisdom glowing in your eyes.
Mukwai, you are the pride of my home,
With you by my side, I am never alone.
We will build a future bright and so grand,
Hand in hand we will walk across the land.
Oh my beautiful daughters, bana bandi,
You are the light that shines so bright for me.
Natotela Lesa for this gift so sweet,
You make my life so whole, so complete.
I will protect you, stand by your side,
With so much love and so much pride.
My daughters, my joy, my shining stars,
No matter the distance, wherever you are.
Oh my beautiful daughters, bana bandi,
You are the light that shines so bright for me.
When the storms of life begin to blow,
Hold on to the love that we share, you know.
You are precious like copper from the deep ground,
The sweetest melody, the most beautiful sound.
Never forget the lessons that I teach,
There is no limit to the heights you can reach.
Ayy, stand strong, my beautiful queens,
Living the life of your biggest dreams.
I look at your smiles and my heart overflows,
A deeper love that only a parent knows.
From Lusaka streets to the countryside,
I will carry your names with endless pride.
Be kind to the world but stand your ground,
Let your beautiful voices always resound.
You are the grace that keeps me moving on,
My motivation from the dusk till the dawn.
So keep on shining, keep on being true,
There is nothing in this world that you cannot do.
Oh my beautiful daughters, bana bandi,
You are the light that shines so bright for me.
Natotela Lesa for this gift so sweet,
You make my life so whole, so complete.
I will protect you, stand by your side,
With so much love and so much pride.
My daughters, my joy, my shining stars,
No matter the distance, wherever you are.
Oh my beautiful daughters, bana bandi,
You are the light that shines so bright for me.
Bana bandi... my beautiful girls...
Papa loves you so much.
Never forget that, okay?
Natotela mukwai, thank you Lord.
Ayy... yoh... sweet melody fades out...
Muli shani... love you forever.
