(Zahra, stand up my princess!)
(No dulling!)
Early morning sun is shining just for you
New chapter opening, a beautiful view
You walk in the room, everything just dey glow
You represent the best, everywhere you go
From little baby girl to the queen that you are
You shining so bright, you my superstar
Your laughter is the melody that fills up the air
For my daughter Zahra, none can compare
It’s a celebration, Zahra today is your day
Oya, let the music play, let the gbedu sway
Zahra, my queen, you are blessed and you’re fine
Turning another year, watch you finally shine
Oh Zahra, my princess, you’re the pride of the land
Everything you touch, girl, it turns into sand
(No cap!)
Look at your style, man, you gat that natural ginger
Setting the pace, you the one, you the bringer
Of joy and of peace in this home that we share
Everybody look up, see the beauty you wear
You study so hard, chasing dreams to the sky
My Zahra, you fly, you never ask why
Keep moving forward, don’t let nobody stop you
God is your shield, girl, you know that I got you
It’s a celebration, Zahra today is your day
Oya, let the music play, let the gbedu sway
Zahra, my queen, you are blessed and you’re fine
Turning another year, watch you finally shine
Oh Zahra, my princess, you’re the pride of the land
Everything you touch, girl, it turns into sand
(Shey you dey whine me?)

Look at the smile sitting pretty on your face
Happy birthday, daughter, live your life soft
We carry your name to the stars up aloft
So raise up your glass, let the jollof go round

No wahala today, only blessings and love
Sent from the maker, the great one above
You grow in wisdom, you grow in your grace
Setting the standard, running the race
