Your resilience is a wonder to behold
A pillar of strength, your story untold
With every sunrise, you face the day
With courage and hope, you pave the way
Your children look up to you with eyes so wide
Their dependence on you, their sole guide
You work and you strive, through every strife
To give them a future, a better life
With every challenge, you find a way
To overcome, to rise above the fray
Your love and devotion, a beacon of light
Guiding your family, through the darkest night
Your sacrifices, a testament to your might
A true African queen, shining so bright
In a world that often seems unfair
You stand tall, with a mother’s care
So here’s to you, dear single mother
A hero unsung, a heart that’s smothered
In love and kindness, you lead the way
A true inspiration, every single day.
