Tawona Mzila Ranganawa Poet Lyric

I Can Be Poor

I can be poor
I don't mind
As long as I have someone to love.

What does it benefit for a man to have it all
And have no-one to share it with.

I am not scared to love
I am not scared to give
But I am scared that I will not find someone to love.
Someone to share my dreams and hopes.

I won't let the flame in me die.
I love blue things
I will let my candle burn till I find my one.

I will rather be poor 
Than leave without love
And let the devil win.

Let me love, let me live ,Let me give love. 
Or let me be poor.
In love we are free
For in love we are rich
For in love there is kindness
Let me love or be poor.
But I will never let the Devil to win.
