(Guitar arpeggio fades in)
Oh, mama, your light is still shining
Nna, we remember your strength today
Mrs. Kikelomo Elizabeth Ijalade, a woman of grace
You walked this earth with a smile on your face
Though you are gone, your wisdom remains like a song
In our hearts, you belong, where you are strong
You taught us to hustle, to stand on our own two feet
Your legacy is sweet, a rhythm that’s never obsolete
Oh, Mama Kikelomo, we celebrate your name

With your love, with your care, you lifted us high
Even now in the stars, you’re watching from the sky
Oh, Mama, we rise, we keep moving with the light
You are the morning star, shining so bright
Nna, look at the path that she paved for us all
Even when the road was steep, she never let us fall
She was a pillar, a shelter, a mother so true
Every lesson you gave, we keep them all in view
Chai! The way you carried yourself with such pride
With the Lord in your heart, you had nothing to hide

Oya, let the horns blow, let the music swell up
For a queen like you, we lift up the cup
Gratitude is the word, for the life that you led
Following the noble words that you always said
Omo, we are standing, we are moving ahead
Because of the beautiful life that you spread
So we march forward, with your fire in our soul
Reaching for the stars, aiming for the goal
Kikelomo Elizabeth, you are our eternal guide
With your spirit near us, there’s no place for a tear to hide
Life is a journey, we’ll see you again
Until that day comes, we carry on till the end
