Foreigners Did Come In Illegally Poem by Gert Strydom

(in answer to I. L. de Villiers)

Foreigners did come from Zimbabwe, Malawi,
from right across Africa illegally
and some do talk Portuguese and others French
but overnight they are suddenly citizens
that do belong here and rather by their skin colour
have to get a job, as they are true South Africans.

We Afrikaners that were born here,
do not any longer look at political leaders,
to the men that do lead in the churches
as murder and rape and plundering
do happen everywhere and we did loose our country,
our cars and other property
and now our eyes are only focussed on God
for His salvation which will come at a time.
