Malala

[Verse 1]
Fifty-four years down this open road,
Faith in my pocket, love as my load.
Two and a half million miles I would roam,
But every mile pointed me back toward home.
There she waited, steady and true,
A gladiadora, strong through and through.

[Chorus]
Oh Malala, my north and my light,
You held our world together each night.
Like a lioness, fierce and so brave,
Every prayer, every year that you gave.
Through the long haul you carried us strong,
Malala, you're where I belong.

[Verse 2]
Aldo followed the path that I laid,
Machines and grit, the man he's made.
Daniella travels, just like her dad,
Carrying the strength that we both had.
Noble and true, the pride of my days,
The family we built in a thousand ways.

[Chorus]
Oh Malala, my north and my light,
You held our world together each night.
Like a lioness, fierce and so brave,
Every prayer, every year that you gave.
Through the long haul you carried us strong,
Malala, you're where I belong.

[Bridge]
Bianca dreams with the future in her eyes,
Alessa's laughter is our sweet sunrise.
Our granddaughters, the new morning glow,
The blessing that steadies us wherever we go.

[Verse 3]
So here's to the sacrifice, here's to the years,
The love and the grit, the joy and the tears.
You're my compass, my faith, and my rest,
Of every mile, you were always the best.
Thank you, my darling, for all that we grew,
There's no road home that don't lead me to you.

[Outro]
Oh Malala, still steady and bright,
My heart and my home, my forever, my light.
