To Stella Ashnermath Tembo

   This lass is so fabulous

   I delight to write about,

   A stunning fond flower

Called Stella Ashnermath Tembo,

   A bright morning rose

   Very mild as a dove

   Or a calm stream that flows

   Very kind and of zeal

   So packed with thrill

   As a fair flowery hill

   Of lovely fragrance

   Of sweet romance

   So perfectly wrought

   A genius in thought

   That a lot ought to be sought

   So as one has to get

   So modest and so bright

As this Stella Ashnermath Tembo,

   A dazzling morning rose  

   Very mild as a dove

   Or a calm stream that flows

   Full of passion and help

   Of much good and hope

   A strong pillar and rope

   So cheerful, so beautiful

   So respectful, so dutiful

   And her word and doing,

   In one and everything

    So very much reaching

   That I can so delight,

    Or sacrifice to write

Of this Stella Ashnermath Tembo,

    The dazzling morning rose

    Very mild as a dove

    Or a calm stream that flows
