Africa Rejoice! Printable Version PRINTABLE VERSION
by Serah Katusia, Kenya Oct 21, 2003
Environment   Poetry

  

Africa,
My mother, my father,
My only hope for a better tomorrow
A new day for all of us
But
The new day must be sought
Must be found by someone
And that’s us, the African youth

Our governments promise
Promise day by day
Yet none does a thing
No one cares, no one
Not even a soul
Our environment goes to the dogs
Yet…
We only stare with blank eyes
Yet we are the change
And that’s us, the African youth

Day by day
We try hard to survive
Through so much
Cholera, Malaria, Typhoid,
They fill our days with tears
We need to wipe the tears and act
Create channels of change
For us; the African youth.

From the down south
To the horn of Africa
Lets awake!
Awake and act,
Protect, preserve and restore,
Mother earth
She is our mother
Us; the African youth.
