A song for my daughter Ann

From the highlands of Naivasha where the lakes shine so blue

To the coast of Mombasa a world of bright new views

You packed your books and courage and you gave it all your might

My girl with dreams so brilliant making futures shining bright

Oh Ann my daughter you did it Grade 6 is through

With efforts and dedication you made your dream come true

This pride that fills my heart is a fire that only grows

From the first day you left home to the joy that now just glows

There were pages full of questions challenges you'd face with grace

With a quiet steady power you’d finish every race

That determination in your spirit a light that clears the way

Writing your own brilliant story my amazing Nyawera

Oh Ann my daughter you did it Grade 6 is through

With efforts and dedication you made your dream come true

This pride that fills my heart is a fire that only grows

From the first day you left home to the joy that now just glows

And I want you to know though the distance made me sigh

Every single day beneath the same wide sky

I carried you right here in my heart a constant part

Even when we were apart my girl you were in my heart

So here's to you my champion your future's taking flight

I love you oh I love you with all my love and light

From Naivasha to Mombasa you've shown us how to soar

My wonderful daughter Ann Nyawera I couldn't love you more
