Home Goes The Troublemaker [for Nelson Mandela|

Rating: 3.5


Home goes the Troublemaker*
A nationalist of valour and vim
Virulent stumbling stone for racism
Africa, let tears fall for Him!
.
Home goes the Troublemaker
He went across a severe stake
And the jinx of apartheid he did break
Africa, let tears fall for His sake.

Joseph Oladehinde Ibikunle.
(NOTE) 'The Troublemaker' is got from Nelson Mandela's fore name 'Rolihlahlah' a South African's Xhosa term colloquialy meaning 'troublemaker'
