River Niger
Sweet Niger wherever I go I will come back;
Certainly I will for the rejuvenation of life.
Even if I am old and my frame begins to rack,
I shall be born again when into your bowel I dive.
I will come back for the rejuvenation of life.
With your breeze I shall refill my leaking breath.
I shall dive into your healing in my swimming trunk.
Deep in your depth,you will rebuild me length and breadth.
To my fullest size I will stretch in you and not be shrunk.
You will rebuild me lenght and breadth in my swimming trunk .
My daily yearning for you tells me how much I miss you;
Your awesome beauty and surplus electric golden fish
That we sometimes roasted under that ageless yew
Tantalising us with the pleasure words can never dish.
How much I miss you words can never dish.
