»Beautiful«
(by Zandile Mboneni)
I am, but a woman with faults.
I am beautiful, not just.
In my eyes you should seek my smile, for they will take you to the heart that smiles, but with doubt.
I am, but a woman with faults.
I am beautiful, not just.
With my fallen breasts, a mother I am, for my womb has carried an Angel, to whom my eyes and affection were given.
For its smile you should seek in my eyes, for they will show you all the love I carry within.
I am, but a woman with faults.
I am beautiful, not just.
I am beautiful, not just.
In my eyes you should seek my smile, for they will take you to the heart that smiles, but with doubt.
I am, but a woman with faults.
I am beautiful, not just.
With my fallen breasts, a mother I am, for my womb has carried an Angel, to whom my eyes and affection were given.
For its smile you should seek in my eyes, for they will show you all the love I carry within.
I am, but a woman with faults.
I am beautiful, not just.
