Ode To Africa
Oh, Africa , the roots of all the races,
The truth is buried and lies shine all over.
Oh! Africa, strong old house filling young women and men.
"Look ! looking too old but more active."
Oh ! Africa , being portrayed bad on some media , did not stop you to shine, shining bright like a diamond.
Oh! Africa, miraculous land admired by millions of world people.
Praise be the God " Thatha Leeza" Who created you so beautiful , oh ! Africa.
O' Africa with many caves , mounts, lakes , rivers , gardens , waterfalls, forests and popular Islands.
Oh! Africa, resisted thousands of
challenges, many wars, disasters , diseases. "Rise up , rising Africa , continue to shine , shining like rubies."
Oh , Africa, remind those stood up to destroy you,
Speak loud to the new hypocrites who are coming to destroy you, O Africa.
" Whoever digs a pit may fall into it , whoever breaks through a wall may be bitten by a snake."
How pleasing you are ,
O Africa, with your delights!
Blessed is you , O Africa.
Praise be the God who created You beautifully , Oh! Africa.
