Africa; This Beautiful Land!

The land of treasures

The land that birthed our ancestors and heroes

The land where our great men valor, lost their lives to her emancipation

This land, our homeland

Where treasures slip down like a draining honey,

Where gold roll like tides

And oil enveloped the soil

This land, our homeland

Where fertile soil is an aura

Where Ivories, Silver and Diamonds are harboured by the vast wild

This land, our homeland

Where rich Savannah blossom

And plants with sweet aroma

Unfurl their bright petals

Whose scent smells from a distance

You're our motherland!

Oh Africa,

The land of our roots

When the sun shall rise,

We all shall stand in strength

To keep off the rays of

Our tribalism and free you from our tragic hands

When the darkness shall cease,

We shall all assert together,

In our voice, the match to freedom and untie the Scarlett,

You have been smothered with

When the break of dawn shall emerge, with all its brightness,

We shall live to embrace the light, and cherish the bright morning

When wars shall be bitter,

In our own residence,

There than, shall we all learn to join hands and stick in Africanism and not tribalism

You're the land of our dreams,

But with our own abominations,

We've all sprouted out the dreams

You're the land our forefathers fought for!

But now we've left their struggles and their courage faded in vain

You're a land whose beauty soars behind the fantasy of thoughts, where all races wish to live in

It's sad seeing our own hands held you down to dusts and chains

But I believe that time shall arrive, when we, all shall know we are enough to raise you up to the skyline of the universe together with our nations

I believe that time shall come, when we all shall understand our history and treasure the liberation our founders toiled for

I believe that time shall arrive, when we all shall be able to hold hands together and walk the pavements in unity and love of brotherhood

I believe that one day, we shall only be called Africans and not countrymen
