The rhythm, the beat,
The love, the hate,
The cold, the heat,
The destiny, the fate
The country
wealthy
with poverty
The time
to change this cycle - The crime
The joy
In which the people employ.
The nation
with sickness, lack of education.
The death, the birth,
The richness of our wonderful earth.
Africa,
Full of culture,
The people love her.
