Hail! Beloved Africa dear continent
Hail! Cradle of life and paralyzed giant
In pains I mourn thy traditional values
White monsters ‘ve marred thy dues
To the dust heap thy natural strength
Thy moral values down from the height


Before the Whites happened to us
We ourselves knows much better
Then came their imposition
Refusing to learn form their invaded culture
A disgrace to our values
Shattered with hammer of White orientation


Learn a little; be filled with wisdom
Incomprehensible, our religion; not magic
A call for peace, unity and harmony
Promotes communalism; shuns thy individualism
Man not an Island; our creed


What of thy wicked plan to obliterate us
Slavery menace has a lot to reveal
Of what thou heartless beasts did to us
Our territories occupied to rule
Interest, in our virgin lands to explore
Inhabitants; victims of dehumanization



Sought later justice thy consciences
Thy foolish debate heated up
The possibility of black soul


Could Blacks be allowed to be humans?
O! wise fools; I have a disturbance
Skin colour has no contribution
It is a mere accident
Just like thy ripped - carrot colour


Prove not thy intelligence
Blacks are more of that
Blame goes to nature
Soon, progress would invade nature
To strike the balance with triumph.
