Whispered)

Mama

Kumba...

I

dey

miss

you

so

much

This

one

for

you,

my

woman

king

Rest

in

peace,

mama

I

sit

down

here,

I

dey

look

at

the

sky

Thinking

of

the

tears

you

used

to

cry

All

by

yourself,

you

stood

in

the

rain

You

carried

the

burden,

you

carried

the

pain

Just

to

make

sure

I

get

where

I

dey

You

gave

up

your

life,

you

gave

up

your

way

Every

night

you

toiled,

every

morning

you

rose

Protecting

your

child,

hiding

your

woes

Oh,

Mama

Kumba,

you

were

my

queen

The

strongest

soul

that

I

ever

seen

You

suffered

for

me,

you

planted

the

seed

But

now

you

are

gone,

in

my

hour

of

need

I

wish

you

could

see

the

fruit

of

your

labor

I

miss

you,

Mama,

your

love

was

my

favor

Rest

in

peace,

my

woman

king

To

your

sweet

memory,

I

always

will

sing

Education

was

the

dream

that

you

kept

Even

when

hungry,

even

while

you

slept

My

clothes

were

clean,

even

when

yours

were

old

You

gave

me

the

warmth,

you

stood

in

the

cold

And

now

that

I

rise,

now

that

I

stand

tall

I

look

for

your

face,

but

I

hear

just

the

call

Of

the

wind

in

the

trees,

a

ghost

of

your

grace

I’

m

lost

in

this

world,

I’

m

out

of

my

place

Oh,

Mama

Kumba,

you

were

my

queen

The

strongest

soul

that

I

ever

seen

You

suffered

for

me,

you

planted

the

seed

But

now

you

are

gone,

in

my

hour

of

need

I

wish

you

could

see

the

fruit

of

your

labor

I

miss

you,

Mama,

your

love

was

my

favor

Rest

in

peace,

my

woman

king

To

your

sweet

memory,

I

always

will

sing

They

say

time

heals,

but

this

hole

is

too

deep

I

cry

for

you,

Mama,

while

the

city

go

sleep

Every

milestone

I

cross,

every

step

that

I

take

Is

for

the

sacrifice,

for

the

promises

you

make

My

woman

king,

you

taught

me

to

fly

I’

ll

keep

your

spirit

alive

till

I

die

Rest

well,

Mama

Kumba

Forever

my

heart,

forever

my

soul

I

love

you,

I

cherish

you (

Ayy...)

Rest

in

peace (

Ayy...)

Sleep

well,

my

queen
