(Ayy, yoh, hear me now, my son)
Edward Mwaka Mpande, this is for you
Listen closely, mukwai
From town of chingola to the world so wide
I pray the Lord will always be your guide
Mayo! The road is long but your steps are secure
With every single struggle, you will endure
No boza, no lies can block your way
You are the star that brings the day
Edward Mwaka Mpande, your future is bright
Walking in the grace, walking in the light
May God bless you, protect you every day
Natotela, Lord, for showing him the way
Edward Mwaka, my champion, my son
Your victory has already begun!
Go chase your dreams, make the family proud
Let your success speak out loud
From the Copperbelt shine to the city lights
You will soar to the highest heights
God's favor dey cover you, my boy
Filling your life with peace and joy
Edward Mwaka Mpande, your future is bright
Walking in the grace, walking in the light
May God bless you, protect you every day
Natotela, Lord, for showing him the way
Edward Mwaka, my champion, my son
Your victory has already begun!
God protect you, Mwaka
My son, your future is bright
Amen, amen
(Yoh, on God!)
