Africa dear Africa
Your children are lonely and depressed
Africa dear Africa
Your children are at war with each other
...
The people of Africa sing and dance
The people of Africa beautiful and full of chance.
The people of Africa poor yet rich
The people of Africa which is which
...
In Mogadishu's cradle, I first saw light,
Where waves sang lullabies through the night.
The ocean's breath, a gentle, salty kiss,
Each day begun with coastal bliss.

Africa's Pain Is My Pain
Africa dear Africa
Your children are lonely and depressed
Africa dear Africa
Your children are at war with each other
Africa dear Africa
Your children are killing each other
Africa dear Africa
Your children are starving
Africa dear Africa
Your essence is pure but you are suffering
Africa dear Africa
your pain is my pain
So i sit here crying.
