Ayy,
yoh
Sixteen

grace,
my
balumebandi
Bashi
Franz,
this
one
is
for
you
Mwaiseni
to
your
day
Sixteen
years,
we
don
walk
this
road
together
Through
the
sunny
days
and
the
stormy
weather
You
stood
so
tall,
a
rock
beside
my
side
With
you,
my
heart
has
got
nowhere
to
hide
Omo,
the
way
you
lead
our
home
with
fear
of
God
Following
Jehovah’
s
path,
you
never
tire,
you
never
nod
Kangwa
and
Estella
call
you
Dad
they
see
the
light
you
bring
To
Franz,
Stacy
and
you
are
the
hero,
you
are
their
everything
Bashi

You

Sixteen

it’
s

in
the
sky
For
the
man
you
are,
I
will
never

from
deep
within
To
honor
the
great
journey

Eish!)
My
champion,
my
crown,
my
peace
of
mind
A
better
man
than
you,
I
know
I’
ll
never
find
I
see
your
spirituality,
I
see
how
you
guide
the
small
ones
Helping
them
grow,
teaching
them
to
be
the
strong
ones
My
sisters
look
to
you
for
wisdom
every
day
You
wipe
their
tears
and
show
them
the
better
way
You
put
Jehovah
first,
that’
s
why
our
house
is
blessed
In
your
arms,
Bashi
Franz,
I
find
my
sweetest
rest
Tebufi
in
my
heart,
only
truth
and
love
so
deep
Promises

know

to
keep
