Black continent you are an epitome of home
How I long to behold you-
You your children always hum
To a fault their love for you-

Standing in the mid of the universe
As a mountain in the mid of the sea
Your thoughts are so verse
Civilisation from you they see-

Greatly crowned by nature
With the splendour of your resources
your inhabitance you they nuture
As the gardener the roses

But alas you were destroyed to your very structure
the western hate for black and greed for wealth
The aldutration of our Nature and culture
Arise! Mama Africa, restore your Nature and heal
