"Isn't She Lovely" lyrics
"Isn't She Lovely"
Isn't she lovely?
Isn't she wonderful?
Isn't she precious?
Less than one minute old
I never thought through love, we'd be
Making one as lovely as she
But isn't she lovely? Made from love
Isn't she pretty?
Truly the angel's best
Boy, I'm so happy
We have been heaven blessed
I can't believe what God has done
Through us, He's given life to one
But isn't she lovely? Made from love
Isn't she lovely?
Life and love are the same
Life is Aisha
The meaning of her name
Londie, it could have not been done
Without you who conceived the one
That's so very lovely, made from love
Writer(s): Stevie Wonder
This song was dedicated to the birth of Stevie Wonder's daughter, Aisha Morris.
"Aisha" comes from the Arabic language and roughly translates to "she who lives".
Londie mentioned in these lyrics is Yolanda Simmons, Stevie Wonder's wife and mother of Aisha.
Stevie Wonder performed this song live for Queen Elizabeth II at her Diamond Jubilee Concert on the 4th of June 2012. The lyrics were modified to refer to the Queen.
Stevie Wonder was honored with the TV special "Stevie Wonder: Songs in the Key of Life - An All-Star Grammy Salute" in 2015. When this song was being performed at the ceremony by
Ne-Yo, he was joined midway through the song by Aisha Morris, which surprised Wonder, who didn't expect to hear his daughter's voice.
