Elegy For Brenda Fasie

There will be another special
Friday when the true lovers of music
Will gather world wide to honor
Your legendary memory
There will be another Weekend
Special but no imitation will
Equal the fabulous majesty
Of the original classic
Those who hoarded your fortunes
Will be brought to justice
They're watched and they kow it
Goodbye pride of our country
There was never a dull moment
In your eventful unforgettable life
Goodbye our beautiful rose
Goodbye queen of our music
They refuse to build your statue
The will not induct you
In the hall of fame the deafening
Silence of officialdom means
They were afraid of you
You serenaded our hearts
Your music brought joy to our souls
Your soaring tunes brought peace
To our troubled spirits
Too early death has claimed you
For eternity the illustrious name
Of Brenda Fasie the supremely talented
Will live on in our heart and no
Soiled pen of the gutter journalist
Will succeed to bring shame to and
Dishonor to your fantastic legacy
Goodbye pride of our motherland
Farewell rose of our fatherland
Earth has lost your marvelous voice
Our country has lost the fabulous
Nightingale the likes of which
We are not like to see again
We will meet again Mabrrr*
Mabrrr...nick name of Brenda Fasie
In the world beyond this one
The world has lost a song bird
Heaven has gained a pretty nightingale
