Upbeat,
bright
percussive
intro)
Yeah,
yeah
This
is
for
the
one
who
gave
it
all
For
the
queen,
for
the
heart
of
the
home
Oyelola
Rashidat,
we
celebrate
you
today
Oh,
oh,
oh
Early
morning
sun
is
shining
bright
for
you
The
birds
are
singing
tunes
that
feel
brand
new
You
wake
with
grace
and
eyes
that
see
the
best
in
me
You
are
the
lighthouse
guiding
ships
across
the
sea
Through
every
storm
you
held
me
with
a
steady
hand
The
kindest
spirit
walking
in
this
weary
land
Your
love
is
constant
like
the
rising
of
the
tide
With
you
beside
me,
there
is
nowhere
left
to
hide
Oh,
Oyelola,
my
mother,
you
are
gold
A
treasure
worth
much
more
than
can
be
ever
told
Iya
ni
wura,
my
mother
is
my
prize
I
see
the
heavens
shining
in
your
loving
eyes
Happy
birthday
to
the
woman
who
is
true
My
heart
is
singing
all
its
melody
for
you
Your
sacrifices
written
in
the
life
I
lead
You
planted
every
flower,
watered
every
seed
When
I
was
weak
you
were
the
rock
I
leaned
upon
You
kept
the
candle
burning
till
the
break
of
dawn
Your
wisdom
is
a
river
flowing
clear
and
deep
In
your
warm
embrace
is
where
I
safely
sleep
No
mountain
is
too
high
when
you
are
leading
on
You
are
the
melody,
my
everlasting
song
Oh,
Oyelola,
my
mother,
you
are
gold
A
treasure
worth
much
more
than
can
be
ever
told
Iya
ni
wura,
my
mother
is
my
prize
I
see
the
heavens
shining
in
your
loving
eyes
Happy
birthday
to
the
woman
who
is
true
My
heart
is
singing
all
its
melody
for
you
So
let
the
drums
beat
loud
for
the
queen
today
Let
every
shadow
dance
and
fade
away
Because
a
mother’
s
love
is
heaven’
s
own
design
I’
m
grateful
for
the
light
that
makes
your
spirit
shine
Raise
your
glass
and
toast
to
all
the
years
ahead
For
every
prayer
you
prayed
and
every
word
you
said
Oh,
Oyelola,
my
mother,
you
are
gold
A
treasure
worth
much
more
than
can
be
ever
told
Iya
