The Lion (Gaiende) |

| Waiting your time, dreaming of a better life |
| Waiting your time, so much more than just a wife |
| You don’t have to do what your mother has done, she has done |
| This is your life, this new life has begun |

| It’s your day — a woman’s day |
| Turning the tide, you are on the incoming wave |
| Turning the tide, you know you are nobody’s slave |
| Find your brothers and sisters |
| Who can hear all the truth in what you say |
| They can support you when you’re on your way |
| It’s your day — a woman’s day |
| It’s your day — a woman’s day |
| We are shaking the tree… |
| There’s nothing to gain when there’s nothing to be lost |
| There’s nothing to gain if you stay behind and count the cost |
| Make a decision that you can be who you can be, you can be |
| Tasting the fruit, come to the liberly (?) tree |
| It’s your day — a woman’s day |
| It’s your |
