I am African …
Africa, my Africa,
coursing through my veins,
the tributaries of all the rivers, all the streams,
infusing my nights with hope imbibed dreams.
Traversing the open savannah, walking alongside brother and sister, mother and father,
my city alive with promise, my continent throbbing with life,
my skies free to soar, my potential a purposeful roar.
Africa, my Africa,
you are the tears I have cried, my joyous dances in the rain, the balm that cures me from my sorrows and my pain.
Africa, my Africa,
you are me and I am you, I am not, but you remain perennially true, your soul intertwined with mine, your light never ceasing to shine,
Africa, my Africa,
I am not, but you remain everlasting and true,
Africa, my Africa,
you live within me,
Africa, my Africa,
I live within you …
