You shall, with vigor, face the days ahead.
Speak words that are enriching like wine and bread.
You shall, all your goals hit on first sight of aim.
As success drives you safe into hall of fame.
You shall, with  African strength, be the Queen of your home
Hold your family together with none to ever roam
You shall touch a person, a people, even a tribe
Ensuring all glory, to the Lord, you ascribe.
You shall be celebrated by both family and stranger
In your fears even enemies will  keep you from danger
You shall smile on hearing that  you make others smile too
And marvel when they show how the world, they think of you
For a sign of assurance that these things will be
You shall receive a special birthday prayer from me
