Sultana

Sultana

My little one, you’re chosen, not your brothers,
for this will be too heavy for their shoulders.
Your people need a selfless, humble leader.
Treat them fairly and guard them from evil.

You can ride through Delhi on an elephant
with your face uncovered.
Close your ears to lies and flattery.
Be strong, noble, and wise for the good of the people.

Now here’s some advice, Sultan to Sultana:
Don’t let your heart dry up, harden, or wither.
Be patient as they’re learning to trust you.
They’ve never known a daughter to be ruler.

You can ride through Delhi on an elephant
with your face uncovered.
Don’t be scared to lead them thru the struggles,
if it is all for the good of the people.

Nothing will hold you back.
Nothing (nothing, nothing) will hold you back.
