Happy birthday to His Royal Blackness; HRB
God's humble servant, culture lover KKD
Thank God for His abundant love and family
And friends and clients, loyalty and sincerity
I count my blessings, name them one by one
And I am grateful for what the Lord has done
Gifted me a cheerful upbringing and education
Filled me with talents to love and serve my nation
Loaned me a wife in youth then took her away
Granted me beautiful children and strengthened me to stay
To raise, educate, entertain and elevate them
Through fair and foul weather, He held me to adore them
With help from selfless family and special Earth Angels
He blessed me to feed them and guide them and teach them
No greater job have I known than the role of father
It takes pride of place over Managing Director
High above Public Affairs & Communications Director
More important to me than Arbiter of Culture
It trumps my early career as TV & Radio Presenter
It beats my years in work as Advertising Manager
Fills me with pride so to be a doting father
To the children I have raised, Darkwah & Ohemaa
I am thankful for the many pleasures in my life
The air, water, food, shelter, style and jive
But nothing exceeds the love for les enfants Kyei-Darkwah
My passion, my pride, my joy forever
In life we'll find many things we chase are fleeting
The loved houses, planes, boats and cars take a beating
Brand-new today, so passé tomorrow
Sunrise of happiness, sunset of sorrow
But true faith in God and deep love for family
Sound mind in sound body, nurtured steadily These in good measure the blessed have readily
I pray they give pleasure and inspire others verily
Life is not a competition for hunter-gatherer
Nor expedition of unnecessaries for obscene power and money-chaser
Loaded cash and hoarded gold did not discover penicillin
If all the loot can't cure illness, money ain't everything
I have lived, and live on, and know this for sure
Life is being alive, well and thankful, nothing more
But to love and give freely each day an act of kindness
To someone, anyone, somewhere in God's universe
To brighten your corner to add light to some special interest
And give your contribution before in peace you rest To accept Gratitude is the Aristocrat of Attitude
And be thankful each day for life no matter your altitude
I thank God for His love and wisdom, I must confess
My worries are many but my blessings outnumber them; Yes
I am thankful to God, my parents, family and well-wishers
My heart and soul are filled with love; I am blessed. #happybirthday #blessed #ashanti #gh #uk #hisroyalblackness #kkdwisewords #thankful
