Intro] (
Nne!)
The
sun
is
shining
bright
today (
Oya!)
It
is
a
special
Friday
celebration
[Verse 1] Nineteen
years
ago,
the
morning
light
was
sweet
A
Sunday
morning
blessing
laid
right
at
my
feet
My
first
fruit
of
the
womb,
the
opener
of
the
gate
You
brought
the
light
of
heaven,
you
sealed
a
glorious
fate
Oh
Opemipo,
you
are
the
beauty
of
my
days
I
watch
you
grow
in
wisdom,
in
your
own
beautiful
ways
[Chorus] Happy
birthday
Opemipo,
my
joy
and
my
pride
With
you
by
my
side,
there
is
nowhere
left
to
hide
You
are
the
wealth
of
my
heart,
you
are
my
life’
s
sweet
song
May
the
heavens
bless
you,
keep
you
brave
and
strong
Chop
life,
my
daughter,
live
it
to
the
fullest
measure
You
are
my
greatest
gift,
my
everlasting
treasure
[Verse 2] Nineteen
years
of
laughter,
nineteen
years
of
grace
I
see
the
glow
of
angels
written
on
your
face
Like
a
flower
in
the
garden,
blooming
in
the
sun
Your
journey
to
the
top
has
only
just
begun
Omo!
My
heart
is
full,
I
thank
the
Lord
above
For
filling
up
my
house
with
your
precious,
gentle
love
[Chorus] Happy
birthday
Opemipo,
my
joy
and
my
pride
With
you
by
my
side,
there
is
nowhere
left
to
hide
You
are
the
wealth
of
my
heart,
you
are
my
life’
s
sweet
song
May
the
heavens
bless
you,
keep
you
brave
and
strong
Chop
life,
my
daughter,
live
it
to

measure
You

[Bridge] May
your
path
be
paved
with
gold,
may
your
sorrows
fly
away
May
you
walk
in
favor
every
single
night
and
day
Chai!
See
my
daughter,
she
is
omalicha
May
the
blessings
follow
you
everywhere
[Verse 3] Remember
who
you
are,
the
daughter
of
the
king
Life
is
a
melody
that
only
you
can
sing
Keep
your
head
held
high,
let
your
kindness
be
your
guide
With
your
family
at
your
back,
you
never
need
to
hide
My
womb
opener,
my
star,
my
shining
light
Everything
you
touch
will
surely
turn
out
right
[Chorus] Happy
birthday
Opemipo,
my
joy
and
my
pride
With
you
by
my

there
is
nowhere
left
to
hide

of
my
heart,
you
are
