First mother tongue,
Then only I respect
Other languages.
I am never ego- centric
While telling
These natural words.
Rather I respect
You all.
Oh yes, from the core of
My heart I can utter
Only with mother tongue.
Try to understand
This truth here
On this pious land.

I would like to translate this poem
Mother tongue signify originality. Kingsley Egbukole
