ODE: "BIRTHDAY WISHES TO A JEWEL" BY MAN OF LIT
Brighter than the sun,
Is the day this queen was born,
Angels sing,
As birds fly from tree to tree,
Commemorating this great day,
Of Happy birthday to you
My Princess,
Shine like a star,
And walk to your style,
Smile for the world,
For today is your big day,
I sing with you,
Though back at Kenya,
How I wish you pronounce my name,
To help commemorate this great day,
Of Happy birthday to you.
