A Powerful Woman: Ode To My Wonderful Mother

When a powerful woman departs from this world
She leaves behind a great legacy
While she rests in eternal peace
Because her entire life was lived not only for herself
But for countless generations to come

When a powerful woman departs from this world
Although her loved ones shed tears
They still look back and appreciate
As they affectionately remember
What she has done for them

When a powerful woman departs from this world
Indeed, the Mighty hand of God is seen
Through how she ran her race
Under Divine the Divine Grace
Which leads her to the Promised Land

When a powerful woman departs from this world
Her beautiful memories remain
Her wonderful contribution embraced
Her colourful name celebrated
By those whose lives she changed
When a powerful woman departs from this world, no one can dispute that she made her mark
