No matter the colour of your skin
You are unlimited
Even by your background or kin
You are stronger
Than every challenge you face
You are greater
Than the boundaries of your race
No matter your history or experience
No matter your mistakes or their consequence
No matter the pattern of your stretch mark
Nor how the wrinkles on your face park
You radiate with beauty from deep within
Your riches exceed those of Sheba's queen
Your wisdom distinguishes you from the crowd
Your humility is a constant
lesson to the proud
You're a mother of nations
with a blessed and fruitful womb
You're a leader in industries
You excel in all you do
You take what is given and multiply
You invest your goodness and beautify
You are a rare gem, a diamond uncut
You are a wonder, success is your lot
In every situation and circumstance
Through every trial, maintain your dance
Tap into the strength and greatness within
At the end of the road, you will surely win
You're a mother of nations
with a blessed and fruitful womb
You're a leader in industries
You excel in all you do
You take what is given and multiply
You invest your goodness and beautify
You are a rare gem, a diamond uncut
You are a wonder, success is your lot
In every situation and circumstance
Through every trial, maintain your dance
Tap into the strength and greatness within
At the end of the road, you will surely win
