Black Hair

The girl with long black hair 
She ties it in tail-pair
Which flies in air 
As she jumps from chair to chair 
The black girl that grows 
Those
Beautiful rose
Oh! those 
Beautiful rose
Where the water flows 
Near the lake 
Every morning as she wake 
And swim in the lake 
She water those
Beautiful red rose
Dance like a snake 
On the rock near the lake 
Black is what she take 
Her identity she never fake 
My Black girl
My Gambian girl
My West African girl
My African girl
She give me a grain of love
We share like dove 
In her heart I live 
My heart I give 
My yesterday
My today 
My tomorrow 
She wipe my sorrow
My Black girl
My Gambian girl
My West African girl
My African girl

Home

I'm back to where i belong
It make me strong
To correct all my wrong
Remind me of my song
Home, sweet home
There is no place like home
Walking in the street with my boy
Dancing with great joy
Nothing to fear
As i knew everywhere
In my neighbourhood
Playing with my childhood
Long time friend
The journey had end
Now i am so free
Like the birds in the tree
I am enjoying my freedom
I'm back in my kingdom
Many years i cross
Now i am the boss
Oh! when i come
They say, welcome back home
Scheming day and night
Just to see the light
What took me so long
Only to see where i belong
I miss my beautiful darling mother
What a happy day to see my brother and sister!
I love my home
The Gambia is my home

Life Is Marathon

Are you ready, set and go 
Never look back just go 
The way is rough
And the journey is tough
Sometimes you cough 
Because the air is not enough
Sometimes for your survival 
As the world is waiting for your arrival
The journey is far 
Like the distant between the earth and the star 
But step by step you overcome them one by one
Turn every stone
They will start asking what have you done 
Some will say you are crazy
But in the end they find it amaze
Today many lines you had cross
To be the boss 
Was your goal in every race 
by increasing your pace
To overcome the first person
To last person
To overcome the last person
Was your mission in every season
Today you are shining like a gold 
Your story will be told 
For generation to come
You will be welcome
In their heart and soul which hold
You, where you wild never get old
As among the greatest 
And the best 
Your name will be in the history book 
For generation to look 
As their inspiration 
To do their best for their nation

Key To My Heart

I give you the key to my heart
Since the start
Do as you wish 
Anything you want I will dish 
Open the door 
Roll on the floor 
Walk in my heart
Sleep in my heart
Live in my heart 
Die in my heart
Bury in my heart
And decompose in my heart
Take my heart
Please keep it in your heart
Now you have two 
Stick to it like glue 
Throw the key in the river 
Then be my driver
Play with me like a toy 
As you are my joy
You take away my breath
My death 
Will be happy 
Be in my company
That money can not buy 
I will never try 
If love was on sale 
It will be a fair-tale 
I will chase to buy yours 
I'm now all yours 
I write your name in my heart
You become a tattoo in my heart
That I with live with 
And die with

Good Morning

Morning rises 
I see the bliss 
As I lose in thought
Wondering what the morning brought
But your name 
That came
I feel sad when the evening come 
As I will miss you till morning com Your good morning message
And your good night message
Keep me always smiling 
And singing 
As it make my day lovable 
My night very comfortable
Everyday 
Is a new day 
I adore you
Which I will live to do

My Mother

My mother
Your mother
This poem is dedicated to mother
Your mother
I respect my mother
You respect your mother
My mother please don't cry
When I say goodbye
The coins is enough to buy
All my needs, I try
I grows my wings to fly,
Fly high to the sky
Out to the world
I remember word
And your song,
You used to sing to me to strong
As I may fall
On my way, but remember to raise up tall
I had pray for your protection
In all your mission
You can't love me more my mother
Don't ever try to bother
Who pray ceaseless
To bring back my happiness
You read my mind
And knows what is behind
You feel so bad
Seeing me very sad
My mother had sleepless night
Just to see my life bright
You lied down the rule
And took me to school
My mother sacrifice her wealth
For my health
You pampered me with love
That was sent straight from above
Which is so unique and pure
And more than a medical cure
Each day is a happy day
As I wake up to another day
Seeing your face 
Bring me joy no one can replace
And give me hope
And strength to cope
It is a blessing
That I'm not missing
As my mother stood for me yesterday
That is why I'm standing before you today
They said behind every successful man
There is a strong woman
My mother!
In my life,
I had pray to have a wife
Like my mother
My mother cry 
When I cry
My mother is happy
When I'm happy
My mother is angry
When ever I'm hungry
And you can't provide me with enough meal
The pain and wound is hard to heal
You wake up from morning
Doing all the house work till evening
And make so, I'm always clean and clear
You provide me everything on time, is for my dear
My mother, I'll raise your profile
And bring you a smile
I'll never let you down
You will walk down the street, your head held up in town
Everyone will admire you now
In my world, you are the best mother I know
No matter what I say or do
I know, I can not repay you
All I want to say is THANK YOU
Your is love true
I'm proud of you
I love you too
I love you mother 
You love your mother
I don't forget you father
I adore you brother
I love you sister
Those are my family
And your family

I Adore You

In my dream is where you walk
In my mind is where you talk
In my heart is where you live
Your whole heart you give
In my memory is your room 
In my mind's eye is where you bloom 
Under my skin is where you hide
From cold wind
You are one of the kind 
Who live in my heart and ride
As in my heart you don't need key to open the door
Just walk in the floor
Need I say more
You are one of the girls I adore

Because Of

Because of my colour
You dislike me 
Because of my belief 
You hate me
Because of my religion
You discard the union 
You call me names 
And put your blames
Because of I'm a muslim 
You term every muslim 
As a terrorism 
And forget your racism 
You suppose to be preventing 
You are destroying 
You suppose to be saving 
You are killing 
Your peace-keeping mission
It is illusion 
As the leaders 
Are the destroyers 
Because of I'm black 
You kill me 
Because of my faith
You jail me 
Because you hate me 
You beat me 
Because of my colour
You don't like me 
But I put trust in God 
And my faith in God 
As you and I one day will be history
Left behind as story

My Sister

You are my sister
I am your brother
You are my friend
Till the world end
Everything we do people bother
Because we are together
They want to cut the lace that hold our heart
And we fall apart
You will always be my fraternal
So keep everything internal
Make them all blind
And leave them all behind
I choice you out the rest
Because you are the best
Who make me cope
When ever I lost hope
When loneliness was my only companion
You lace our heart as a union
When sorrow was my only friend
You give me hope to depend
I love you
Which I always do
You are my beautiful darling sister
I will be your brother

Black Girl

The girl at the lake 
Everyday as she awake
And swim in the lake
Half-nake
She dance like a snake 
Black she take 
Her identity she never fake
Oh! how she flake 
On the flat rock near the lake 
Her beauty was never a mistake
Her how she make 
Next to the lake
