(Ayy, yoh!)
Listen, today is a day we celebrate greatness
Elijah, it's your season, stand tall!
The sun is shining brighter for you today
Another year of grace, you're on your way
From the Copperbelt streets to the heights you reach
It's a beautiful life, it's a joy to teach
You've been a light, you've been a friend
A blessing that we hope will never end
So lift your hands and let the music flow
Because the favor of the Lord is set to show
Oh, Elijah, it's your day, let the trumpets sound
Celebration in the air, joy is all around
Raise a glass, celebrate the life you've grown
To the greatest man, the one we've known
Elijah, shine, yeah you're the star tonight
Walking in your purpose, everything is right
You tackle every challenge with a steady hand
Building up your vision, you take a stand
No matter the pressure, you stay so cool
Living by your values, breaking every rule
Of doubt and fear, you rise above
Surrounded by the family and all the love
Natotela for the man you chose to be
In this life, you’re the best we ever see
Oh, Elijah, it's your day, let the trumpets sound
Celebration in the air, joy is all around
Raise a glass, celebrate the life you've grown
To the greatest man, the one we've known
Elijah, shine, yeah you're the star tonight
Walking in your purpose, everything is right
It’s a jubilee, a moment made for you
Everything you dreamed is coming into view
No wahala now, just blessings in your cup
Elijah, we’re never gonna give you up
(Ayy, let's go!)
So keep on moving, don’t you ever slow down
You’re wearing greatness like a golden crown
The future's bright, the path is wide and clear
We’re walking with you through every single year
Oh, Elijah, it's your day, let the trumpets sound
Celebration in the air, joy is all around
Raise a glass, celebrate the life you've grown
To the greatest man, the one we've known
Elijah, shine, yeah you're the star tonight
Walking in your purpose, everything is right
Yeah, keep shining bright, Elijah
(Yoh!)
More life, more blessings
From Lusaka to the world
Happy birthday, champ!
