[Introduction]
In the heart of Africa, where the rivers flow free A queen arose, with a vision to see Nzinga Mbande, a name that echoes through time A leader born, to resist and to climb

[Verse 1]
She first appeared on stage, in 1622 so bright With diplomacy as her sword, she took flight Refused to sit on the floor, a symbol of her pride Equality in sight, she stood and wouldn't be denied

[Pre-Chorus]
She walked with kings, but remained a queen Her people's fate, forever serene

[Chorus]
Queen Nzinga, a name that will never fade A warrior and diplomat, in every way she's made Resisted the Portuguese, with all her might A legend born, in the light of day and night

[Verse 2]
She ruled for nearly four decades, a true testament to her name Converted to Christianity, but still maintained her flame Alliances formed, with neighboring states so grand Her kingdom's future, in her hands, she took command

[Pre-Chorus]
She walked with kings, but remained a queen Her people's fate, forever serene

[Chorus]
Queen Nzinga, a name that will never fade A warrior and diplomat, in every way she's made Resisted the Portuguese, with all her might A legend born, in the light of day and night

[Chorus]
Queen Nzinga, a name that will never fade A warrior and diplomat, in every way she's made Resisted the Portuguese, with all her might A legend born, in the light of day and night

[Bridge]
Even after she passed on, her legacy remains A shining star, that continues to reign Inspiring generations, to stand tall and proud Queen Nzinga's spirit, forever loud

[Chorus]
Queen Nzinga, a name that will never fade A warrior and diplomat, in every way she's made Resisted the Portuguese, with all her might A legend born, in the light of day and night

[Outro]
In the heart of Africa, where the rivers flow free Queen Nzinga's story, forever set to be
