The Sun Is Sweet In Africa

The sun is sweet in Africa
but misfortune comes in
when some get only hot ones
while the sweet one is hidden

The sun is sweet in Africa
but misfortune comes in
when some persons receive
just nothing in life time

That sun is sweet in Africa
but that it is not a birth-right
it is a privilege to enjoy it
only cold hell can offer  it all

Children of Africa if you sleep
No sweet sun ever for you here
