A tribute song honoring the great Maya Angelou
lyrics: MAYA ANGELOU
(1)
Hear her voice
It's like magic
Makes the blues disappear
You'll rejoice
'cause a queen holds forth
Words so wise
Spoken clear
Love supreme
Glowing in her heart
Lived her dreams..right..
From the start
Maya Angelou
(2)
'Round the earth
She would travel
The whole world was her home
From her birth..
She gave love to all
For her work
She was known
Malcolm, Martin & Mandela,
Friends who fought for
Justice with her
Maya Angelou
(3)
Read her books
See her dancing
Sings a song with pure grace
And she cooks
With a soulful touch
Puts a smile
On your face
Oprah listens..to what she'd say
Acts on stage - in a New York play
Maya Angelou
(tag)
Her Poetry is
Beyond compare
Brings us joy..
From dark despair
Maya Angelou
Lived her life for humanity
Greatness framed in humility
Maya Angelou
