A Free Man

It began as a struggle many years ago The struggle that only the brave fought for years It was the dream to them A dream they wanted to leave for their young It is today that make the accomplishments of their fight The fight that thousands sacrifice their lives for It is today where a free man wanders on earth fearlessly Today their dream has manifested As the dawn has come to a nation A nation that has grown from strength to strength He walks with his head held up high Happiness covers his pure innocence He is a free man of South Africa Black as coal and strong as the lion This is the land of all people who lives And share great history together. This is the country filled with wonderful people I love my country

so wonderful.. It reminds me of how grateful I should be to those people who fought for the freedom I have right now. We will celebrate independence day within 4 days.
