Oh what beauty you hold, <br />Where every country has a paradise dying to be discovered. <br />Oh mama Africa, <br />The land of diamond and gold, <br />Riches and beauty <br />It’s beautiful to see that our tradition still remains the same till the day of today. <br />Oh mama Africa, <br />How beautiful is it to see all your children are speared around the world <br />Investing and living in harmony, <br />Even thought we don’t have everything Mum, but we have peace. <br />Africa, <br />The continent that is shaped as a jigsaw puzzle with many lost treasures waiting to found. <br />Our Garden of Eden. <br />The land that God Loved and Blessed. <br />But Mama Africa, <br />We your children are not all worthy before you <br />So please unite us as one <br />For the year of today is suffering <br />We are killing our own blood <br />Hate has hit our land hard <br />Love is nowhere to be found <br />We are crying, <br />Dying <br />And also praying <br />For a brighter day. <br />Oh Mama <br />Can you hear us? <br />Can you see our tears of pain? <br />Mama, we need you. <br />Please hear us and be our backbone in this time of need. As this is the cry from your children.Mama Africa<br /><br />Lucia Domingos Fula<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/mama-africa-8/
