Left gift (on) this side (of) curtain
Now Cleanser on (the) dole with H.I.V.

•	The “Widow-Cleanser” is a Malawian professional
“intermediate husband” of...

In the deep veins of her corridors
Flow thick blood of academic Excellency
Dwelling in the hearts of her blocks
Is the dream to serve the nation

Patiently we had to wait 
for the lovely and beautiful expectant UNIMA.
To give birth to her, the giant of the land.

The fourth...

Africa with kingdoms 
then, we violently got segmented and detached by people who never understood us

Not of what has passed

Yao songs

 Sometimes they bring to life memories

which is called 
Poverty. 
Let us focus 
On the Ideologies...
