Olufemi Oloye Poet Ballad

Happy Birthday Dad

To the king of the jungle
To the lion in the den
To the roar that calms d the uproar
To the strong rock that wasn't moved by the  storm that moves the trees 
To the gently moving water that dug deep holes on the foot of the hills
To you my father, the big fish that is never caught up in the trap. 

To the one that has not, yet made the rich
To the one that has not yet gave all to the needy
To one that served and still serving 
To the powerless that serves powerfully
The oasis in the desert 
To the voiceless that gave his voice to the street
To the sky that gave its light to the earth. 
To the harmless that gave alms to them a lot. 

To the head that raised us and shed the strands till he went bald. 

All praise and hail my father 
Celebrate with him in his new age
Happy birthday dear father. 
You might not be the best of fathers,
But you gave us ur level best and left none behind. Sure you are better than the rest. 
Happy birthday Dad
