(Guitar melody intertwining with soft percussion)
Yeah, yeah
This is a song for the heart
For the ones who stood by us
Shadrick Mwaba and Brendah
We celebrate the journey
Listen now
Walking down the road, life has been a winding lane
But we never walked alone through the sunshine or the rain
Brendah and I, Shadrick, we count our lucky stars today
For the circle that we keep, for the love that came our way
Ernest and Racheal, oh the big tree love story shines so bright
You held us steady through the darkest hours of the night
TTK and Claribel, with the songs you always sing
President Avenue memories, the joy that you bring
Oh, beautiful friendship, like the river flowing free
Bound by the spirit, you are family to me
Through the ups and the downs, you are standing by our side
With a heart full of grace and nothing to hide
We celebrate you all, yes we celebrate the love
A blessing from the earth, a gift from above
Joshua and Bridget, Nkana East is where we start
Your hospitality is etched right inside my heart
Jonathan and Nsumi, true monku style and grace
We cherish every moment, every time we see your face
Stuward and Judy, 'Bonjour Papa' rings the bell
Your kindness is a story that we always love to tell
Moxford and Lydia, thank you for the care you show
Odia and Ruth, for the service that continues to grow
Oh, beautiful friendship, like the river flowing free
Bound by the spirit, you are family to me
Through the ups and the downs, you are standing by our side
With a heart full of grace and nothing to hide
We celebrate you all, yes we celebrate the love
A blessing from the earth, a gift from above
Jemuje, our brother Harry Kasapo, stand tall
Maybin and Alice, you are strong through it all
Marvin and Betsheba, your house is always wide
Derrick and Mukuka, with the strength deep inside
Joshua and Racheal, Chikoni and Precious too
Elijah and Margaret, we see the light in you
Jediah and Chalwe, the bond is forever true
Oh, beautiful friendship, like the river flowing free
Bound by the spirit, you are family to me
Through the ups and the downs, you are standing by our side
With a heart full of grace and nothing to hide
We celebrate you all, yes we celebrate the love
A blessing from the earth, a gift from above
Shadrick Mwaba and Brendah say thank you
To every friend, every soul, every view
This Rumba rhythm keeps us moving on
Hand in hand until the break of dawn
Yeah, we are strong together
Forever friends, forever love
