Black Renaissance Poem by Idowu AdegbileroIwari

I am black and bright
I am bold and beautiful
With brawn and brain
And benevolence in my blood to build
A fair and wealthy world

In love and liberty
Devoting my destiny
To fulfil my Maker's dream
Vision once seen by the fathers
The hope I build upon
The dream that further must live

A better world for all of God's children
Must come by the knowing of who I am
With this courage in my heart
And pride in my head; faith in my self
With the will to do, we would sing again
Like morning birds beside the humble brook
The song of honour for all of God's children
