Great nations, wonderful people, sweet black home

O thou Great One, O thou Enkai, O thou Mulungu

Deity of deities, Father of our fathers, source of our life;

Bless theeAfrica, beauteous Madonna, thy beloved

Land of milk and honey, black gold, blessed land

Entity with compare, creation like no other, O Allah

Streams of cool waters, that runs intoMediterranean, and Pacific

Soils black with life, home for they creation, our livelihood

A continent of stupefying grandeur, deserts and rainforests

Family so one, beauty known world over, and acknowledged

Rose and thorns hug, pine and iris wed, lacks nothing

Incessantly we pray, and worship, in ways known to us

Culture so embedded in us, and forever shall, ever and ever

And glory shall be yours, as did our fathers, thy children.

I am a poet, freelance writer, author and blogger. Many of my works have been published on Triond, Wikinut, Trifter, Socyberty, AuthSpot.com, writinghood.com and Bizcovering. I would love to write more here, and gain more experience for pen and paper are my closest companions... besides these I have none.
