My Dream
i dream of a place where i have not been
a place that would satisfy me deep within
i dream of a song i have not sung before
a song that would open every freedom door
i dream of a better Southern Africa
united nations and generations would take us far
i dream of a tribe of kings and queens
a place where there's better food than maize and beans
i dream of smiles in every ebony face
of different colour feet running the same race
i dream of a big African dictionary
where AIDS and poverty are not part of the vocabulary
in my dream i hear God's voice deeply say
"dreams come true, and if you believe, this one may!"
