(Guitar melody flows softly)
Yeah, yeah I.G Mbewe style
To the ones who lead the way
In Nyimba, we celebrate you today
Listen close
Early morning sun rising over the Nyimba sky
You walk into the classroom with a dream in your eye
Not for the gold or the fame of the world
But to see the future of our children unfurled
You take the chalkboard and you craft the truth
Guiding the spirit of the vibrant youth
From the dust of the road to the heights of the mind
Leaving the shadows of struggle behind
Oh, teachers of Nyimba, you shine so bright
You turn the darkness of doubt into light
With patient hearts and the wisdom you share
Showing the world how much you really care
We lift you up, yes, we honor your name
In the hearth of our future, you light the flame
Oh, teachers of Nyimba, you stand so tall
You answer the future’s loudest call
It is not always easy, the path that you tread
With lessons to conquer and hungry hearts to be fed
But your steady rhythm keeps the pace of the day
Clearing the thorns from the children's way
I see you standing there, steady and true
The map of our progress is etched by you
From the village corners to the open field
Your harvest of knowledge is the strength that we yield
Oh, teachers of Nyimba, you shine so bright
You turn the darkness of doubt into light
With patient hearts and the wisdom you share
Showing the world how much you really care
We lift you up, yes, we honor your name
In the hearth of our future, you light the flame
Oh, teachers of Nyimba, you stand so tall
You answer the future’s loudest call
So let the drums keep steady, let the guitar play
We celebrate your labor in a special way
For every letter written, for every book read
It’s because of your kindness that our children succeed
No rest in your rhythm, no break in your stride
With the soul of our people as your only guide
So when the years pass and the faces grow old
Your stories of passion will always be told
Deep in the heart of the land that we love
Guided by spirit from the heavens above
We salute your resolve, we salute your grace
In every student, we see your face
Keep pushing the horizon, keep holding the line
In the stars of our future, you’ll always shine
Oh, teachers of Nyimba, you shine so bright
You turn the darkness of doubt into light
With patient hearts and the wisdom you share
Showing the world how much you really care
We lift you up, yes, we honor your name
In the hearth of our future, you light the flame
Oh, teachers of Nyimba, you stand so tall
You answer the future’s loudest call
Nyimba teachers, yeah
Keep shining for us
We celebrate you today
With love and respect our DEBS wakulekafye
(Guitar melody fades out)
Yeah, keep on teaching I.G MBEWE style.
