Within you, the grace of the universe gathers,
A collection of positive energy flows.
-You, a magnificent female.
Your goodness radiates and glows.
Why did the firmament make woman?
-A being pure to care for the earth.
With fierceness, yet love for another,
To continue life through birth.
Just like stars in heaven,
That illuminates the dark,
You, a mighty woman
Rule the world and make your mark.
You will rise above the cloudy day.
You will lend a helping hand.
A woman brings variety and color.
You sprinkle hope on the land.
So rise, woman, above the ashes,
You're bursting with talent and power.
You lead with strength like a raging tiger,
But when needed, gentle as a flower
-Rise, woman, rise.
You have it within.
Your ancestors define you.
A legacy for kin.
-Rise, woman, rise.
Make the most of your creation.
Womanhood,
a mighty station.
