A Life Well Lived
A song made by Asia Mtambalike
September's child, born in sixty-four
A healthy babe, with grace and more
Lost my father when I was but three
October took him from me
But Uncle's love and Aunty's care
Raised me with discipline fair
O levels earned, a path was set
One thousand nine hundred eighty-four, no regret
Married to Kizza in eighty-six
Our love a sacred, binding fix
Thank you God, my life is good
Through every season, understood
From loss to grace, from pain to light
You've held me through the endless night
Thank you God, my life is good
My legacy stands as it should
A daughter born in eighty-eight
A son in ninety-one, sealing fate
Uncle left us ninety-nine
Mother's light in twenty-oh-one's decline
Four brothers came before me here
Three have gone, their memory dear
One remains at seventy strong
We carry on, we all belong
My son has built his family tree
Two granddaughters blessed to me
One of six, one just turned one
The circle turns, the race is run
Retired now in twenty-twenty-four
With gratitude forevermore
Thank you God, my life is good
Through every season, understood
From loss to grace, from pain to light
You've held me through the endless night
Thank you God, my life is good
My legacy stands as it should
September's child, still standing tall
Thank you God, for giving all
