Toni Cornell — the daughter of Soundgarden hero Chris Cornell — is celebrating her 16th birthday today. And in honour of the occasion, the late musician's estate has shared a previously unreleased version of his song "Only These Words."

The song originally appeared on 2015's Higher Truth, but you can now hear the original version of the track down below. It comes via a touching clip as well, showing a series of moving family images of the father and daughter together.

"Your dad would be so proud of the smart, strong, beautiful, and confident woman you are growing up to be. You are so very loved, and you give so much love, freely and unconditionally," Vicky Cornell wrote in the caption of the Instagram post.

"And to celebrate you with everyone — I'm sharing part of daddy's original version of 'Only These Words' Happy 16th Birthday, Toni!"
