Light on a Hill
Happy Birthday, Dad!
Your journey began in tiny Breman Kuntanase.
Through Jamra, Odoben and Apam, it matured.
And blossomed in Legon.
With Maame Lucy at your side, the Kaneshie and Korle-Bu days passed.
You rose and shone in Kumasi and again in Makola.
Then there was Dar-es-Salaam and the wonders of Tanzania.
You were already a light on a hill even before Tema beckoned
And set you up for the world to see, and see they did a Black Star!
In London, Durban, Lagos, Amsterdam, Nairobi, Washington and Rotterdam.
Still, you shine, Show Boy! You Shine!
Still, you shine, Nana Nkum! You Shine!
Still, you shine, Chairman! You Shine!
Happy Birthday!
