Here We Are! Poem by Naih Garang

We are one
But nobody cares
Because we've no tone
That speaks, no one dares,
And still here we are!

Here we are!
We have a state,
That runs by mercy
Of most high Almighty being,
Hope we soon get statecrafts.

Here we are!
With all it take
To be rich and have a stake
In affairs which aren't fake
But still we're controlled by other states.

Here we are!
Being feared all times
For what we don't know we have,
Only that we have to behave
So well to achieve our statehood not by half.

By name and history
We got it all,
By mercy of God and faith
We got a stone standing tall,
But still here we are with hands seized.

"Break the chains and manacles",
They sing in our churches,
Man up, step up and recharge
The strength we got and be invincible,
Not every time we remain where we now are.
