🎤 LYRICS
(Verse 1)
She walks like sunrise on red earth roads,
carrying market songs and secret oaths.
Muso ye fanga ye, (a woman is strength) the elders say,
she builds the day with quiet clay.
Braids like rivers, eyes like drums,
when she speaks, the future comes.
I saw her lift a city with a word,
turning dust to bread, silence to birds.
Mɔgɔ len t’a kuma, (some people fear her voice)
but truth grows tall when she makes the choice.
Not just pretty like a painted door,
she’s the rhythm of a healing shore.

(Pre-Chorus)
If you ask where beauty starts,
count the beats inside her heart.
If you ask where power lives,
watch the way her spirit gives.

(Chorus)
N’Djeli wa Muso — sing, sister, sing!
Beauty is a river, let the daylight bring.
N’Djeli wa Muso — rise, sister, rise!
Your voice is the drum, your courage the skies.
Muso ye fanga ye, muso ye kanta ye (woman is strength, woman is song).
