Farewell Madiba
START
Farewell Madiba
His mind was in sync with the Universe
His thoughts always focused on good
And even from his prison cell
He did the best he could
To bring about the freedom
For tens of millions of men
By spreading his words of peace
Again and again and again
All men are born equal
Whether black, white or brown
No one has the right
To beat another man down
Madiba is now an Angel
Seeing from up above
This world we humans live in;
A place needing lots more love
But his soul is in a powerful place
Up there on a star
So he'll be able to continue
His great work - from afar
All men are born equal
Whether black, white or brown
No one has the right
To beat another man down
Perhaps he'll sprinkle stardust
On each and every soul
To bestow on them the energy
That makes them strong and whole
He set us such an example
Of love in its truest sense
One that knows no end
One that knows no fence
All men are born equal
Whether black, white or brown
No one has the right
To beat another man down.
oOo
