A LIGHT, A MAN, KWAME NKRUMAH
Once upon a recent time not long ago
A beacon shone, its brilliance aglow.
With a vision as vast as the starry sky
This light embodied, Kwame Nkrumah, our pride.
Dreaming to free Africa from colonial shackles
His resolve unwavering, his spirit remains.
Pan-Africanism his guiding light
Igniting flames of hope, burning ever bright.
In his wake, empires crumble and fall
His voice a rallying cry, heard by all.
"Forward ever, backward never!" he proclaimed
A legacy etched, his memory untamed.
