They say angels wear wings of white
But I saw mine in the darkest night
Eleven years ago, when daddy fell ill
The world got cold, the room grew still
But you stood tall, you didn't run
My sister Bertha, my rising sun
From Selina’s heart straight to yours
You opened up all the closed doors
A very good woman, faithful and true
Bertha, I’d be lost without you
Through every storm, you were my guide
I’m so blessed to have you by my side
For eleven long years, you carried the weight
Never complaining about our fate
You put your own dreams on the shelf
Always loving me more than yourself
You dried my tears, you paved the way
And I thank God for you every single day
And now the calendar turns a page
A beautiful soul, a beautiful age
It’s your birthday, sis, time to shine
No more worries, let’s toast the wine
Today is for you, let the joy begin
My sister, my rock, my closest kin
From Selina’s heart straight to yours
You opened up all the closed doors
A very good woman, faithful and true
Bertha, I’d be lost without you
Through every storm, you were my guide
I’m so blessed to have you by my side
Happy Birthday, my sweet Bertha...
From Selina, with all my love.
Eleven years of grace, eleven years of strength.
May God bless your new age.
(Ooh, happy birthday, Bertha...)
Would you like me to adjust any of the lines, or perhaps change the style of the song to make it sound more like a specific genre you love?
