(Verse 1)
In a world of wonder, there's a place we hold dear,
A part of us that's magic, let's make it clear,
It's the source of our strength, where our stories unfold,
A treasure trove of mysteries, more precious than gold.

The beauty within, it's never too late,
To love every part, embrace who we are,
In this dance of life, we're each a shining star.

A garden of petals, unique and divine,
A symbol of power, where life's threads entwine,
With grace and with purpose, it stands strong and proud,
Let's honor this temple, let's say it out loud.

The beauty within, it's never too late,
To love every part, embrace who we are,
In this dance of life, we're each a shining star.

In every shade, in every form,
It's part of us, it's the norm,
Let's break the silence, let's shatter the shame,
For every vulva, we'll light up the flame.
(Verse 3)
It's a source of creation, of pleasure and more,
A vessel of life, a core to explore,
With strength beyond measure, it weathers the storm,
Let's cherish and nurture, let's transform.

Viva la Vulva, let's celebrate,
The beauty within, it's never too late,
To love every part, embrace who we are,
In this dance of life, we're each a shining star.

So here's to our bodies, in all their grace,
In each unique form, we find our place,
Let's stand tall together, let love lead the way,
In the dance of life, we'll forever sway.
