Listen
closely
now,
my
little
ones
Your
father
speaks,
let
these
words
sink
in
deep
Haniya,
Shahida,
my
precious
jewels
From
Ismael
and
Anelisa,
a
promise
of
love
Haniya
Masambuka,
our
heart
and
our
pride
Shahida
Masambuka,
with
light
in
your
eyes
Your
mother
Anelisa
holds
you
both
so
near
I,
Ismael
Masambuka,
wipe
away
every
tear
We
brought
you
into
this
life
with
a
prayer
Surrounded
by
warmth
and
our
deepest
of
care
Life
is
a
journey,
a
path
that
we
pave
With
the
love
that
we
give
and
the
memories
we
save
Oh,
love
one
another,
let
your
bond
remain
strong
Through
the
nights
that
are
quiet
and
the
days
that
are
long
When
one
is
weeping,
reach
out
with
your
hand
Be
the
soft
place
to
fall,
be
the
grace
where
you
stand
Play
together,
laugh
together,
keep
the
spirit
alive
In
the
heart
of
the
Masambuka,
let
your
kindness
thrive
Don't
run
from
the
moments
that
time
tries
to
steal
Cherish
the
laughter,
make
sure
that
it's
real
Do
not
fight
each
other,
you
share
the
same
blood
Like
roots
of
a
tree
standing
firm
in
the
mud
If
you
see
sadness
in
your
sister's
small
face
Bring
her
to
your
bosom,
a
warm
embrace
You
are
siblings,
a
gift
that
the
heavens
have
sent
A
beautiful
promise
that
was
never
meant
to
be
spent
Oh,
love
one
another,
let
your
bond
remain
strong
Through
the
nights
that
are
quiet
and
the
days
that
are
long
When
one
is
weeping,
reach
out
with
your
hand
Be
the
soft
place
to
fall,
be
the
grace
where
you
stand
Play
together,
laugh
together,
keep
the
spirit
alive
In
the
heart
of
the
Masambuka,
let
your
kindness
thrive
Anelisa
and
I,
we
watch
from
the
side
With
nothing
to
hide
and
with
nothing
but
pride
We
work
every
day
just
to
keep
you
both
whole
Because
you
are
the
light,
you
are
the
soul
Don't
let
the
shadows
whisper
words
of
divide
Just
keep
the
love
of
your
parents
as
your
guide
Be
happy
children,
let
your
joy
ring
out
loud
Let
the
sun
shine
upon
you
beneath
every
cloud
We
are
your
parents,
our
love
never
fades
It
follows
you
through
all
the
colors
and
shades
So
Haniya
and
Shahida,
listen
to
me
Keep
this
family
love
as
the
key
to
be
free
Never
be
lonely
when
you
have
each
other
Just
like
the
love
from
your
father
and
mother
Oh,
love
one
another,
let
your
bond
remain
strong
Through
the
nights
that
are
quiet
and
the
days
that
are
long
When
one
is
weeping,
reach
out
with
your
hand
Be
the
soft
place
to
fall,
be
the
grace
where
you
stand
Play
together,
laugh
together,
keep
the
spirit
alive
In
the
heart
of
the
Masambuka,
let
your
kindness
thrive
Yes,
Haniya
and
Shahida
Love
each
other,
always
Your
father
Ismael,
your
mother
Anelisa
We
are
always
here
Just
love
each
other (
