Libation To My Ancestors

My ancestors, so wise and so strong,
Your legacy will live on in a song.
Your courage and strength were so bold,
You were brave and you were bold.

Your hardships and struggles I cannot ignore,
Your stories are a part of my core.
Your wisdom and love I will never forget,
Your legacy will never be met.

Your spirit will live on in me,
Your courage and strength will always be.
Your memories will stay in my heart,
Your legacy will never part.
