Oh,

our
voices
high
A
celebration
reaching
for
the
sky
For
you,
Mazuba,
the
light
is
bright
Everything
is
feeling
so
right
Mazuba
Bwendo,
the
name
rings
true
A
special
morning
designed
for
you
The
sun
is
dancing
on
the
garden
wall
We’
re
here
to
answer
your
happy
call
It
isn't
just
another
day
in
time
It’
s
a
rhythm,
it’
s
a
reason,
it’
s
a
rhyme
With
every
step
you
take,
the
world
unfolds
A
story
of
a
spirit,
pure
and
bold
We’
ve
gathered
round
to
share
the
golden
glow
Watching
how
your
kindness
starts
to
grow
Oh
Mazuba,
let
the
music
play
It’

a
grand
and
glorious
holiday
Raise
a

to
the
life
you
lead
In
every
word
and
in
every
deed
Yes,
Mazuba,
feel
the
steady
beat
Sweeping
the
rhythm
right
off
your
feet
You’
re
the
star
of
the
evening,
you’
re
the
grace
Putting
a
smile
upon
every
face
Look
at
the
horizon,
look
at
the
glow
There’
s
so
much
beauty
that
you
get
to
know
From
humble
beginnings
to
where
you
stand
Guided
by
spirit
and
a
gentle
hand
We
celebrate
the
journey
you
have
made
In
the
sunshine,
never
in
the
shade
You
bring
a
laughter
that
is
deep
and
clear
Chasing
away
every
doubt
and
fear
Keep
on
shining
with
your
steady
heart
Knowing
that
you’
ve
played
a
vital
part
Oh
Mazuba,
let
the
music
play
It’
s
a
grand
and
glorious
holiday
Raise
a
glass
to
the
life
you
lead
In
every
word
and
in
every
deed
Yes,
Mazuba,
feel
the
steady
beat
Sweeping
the
rhythm
right
off
your
feet
You’
re
the
star
of
the
evening,
you’
re
the
grace
Putting
a
smile
upon
every
face
Nothing
can
dim
the
light
you
bring
Listen
to
the
melody
that
we
sing
It’
s
a
symphony
of
joy
and
pride
With
all
your
loved
ones
by
your
side
Moving
steady,
feeling
so
free
This
is
the
way
it’
s
meant
to
be
So
walk
forward
with
a
steady
pace
With
that
lovely
look
upon
your
face
Many
years
have
paved
the
road
ahead
With
every
hopeful
word
that
you
said
Mazuba
Bwendo,
we
honor
you
In
everything
you
say
and
everything
you
do
Keep
the
passion
burning
in
your
soul
Reaching
for
every
beautiful
goal
Oh

let
the
music
play
It’
s
a

Raise
a
glass

lead
In
