The morning light still finds your chair,
But you’re not sitting there.
Your laughter used to fill the air,
Now silence whispers prayers.
You taught us love, you taught us grace,
Left your smile in every place,
A gentle heart, a guiding flame,
And we’ll never be the same.
Chorus
Oh, Aunty Umapo, we miss you so,
Your spirit shines wherever we go.
Though you’ve gone beyond our sight,
Your love still burns like candlelight.
Aunty Umapo, rest in peace,
Your memory will never cease.
Verse 2
You held our hands through every storm,
Your arms forever warm.
The stories told, the songs you’d sing,
Still echo in everything.
We’ll carry you in every day,
In laughter, tears, and the words we say.
A piece of you in all we do,
Forever lives inside us too.
Chorus
Oh, Aunty Umapo, we miss you so,
Your spirit shines wherever we go.
Though you’ve gone beyond our sight,
Your love still burns like candlelight.
Bridge
And when the stars come out at night,
We’ll see your face in their soft light.
Heaven gained a soul so true,
But our hearts still beat for you.
Final Chorus
Aunty Umapo, we’ll let you know,
Your love still helps our spirits grow.
From earth to sky, from heart to heart,
We’re never truly far apart.
Aunty Umapo, sleep so sweet,
Till the day again we meet.

Would you like me to make it sound more like a church/gospel song, a slow pop ballad, or something in a local traditional style (like Tok Pisin or Pacific island music)? I can adjust the tone and lyrics for that.
