Welcome to Africa
Where we travel less
To mate with nature
In it's purest form
Who needs an alarm clock?
In our beautiful Africa
Where the Cock crows
To herald a beautiful day
We might not have a Disneyland
But our games are unique
Deep in our jungles
Where respect begets respect
But still in our jungles
You proceed with caution
Lest things changes fast
And you become history
Have you been to Kenya?
Great white beaches and safaris
With alluring landscapes
That ambiance, soothingly breathtaking
Looking for the big five?
Just visit Kenya
Where our big Cats knows it
When a stranger approaches
Ready to welcome you
Planning a trip to Africa!
Without visiting its largest?
World's most populous black nation
You sure don't want to leave a void?
That your joys be full
Our men; strong and virile
Our woman; "curvatiously" endowed
If you think you can
Book that vacation
Let's see what you got!
Come with me to Obudu Cattle Ranch
Even if you desire fruits?
Visit Osun Sacred Groove
The dwelling of Her Majesty
The goddess of fertility
Forget fake news
It's a plague we can live with
Our gates are open
To receive your excellency
With a plate of "Amala" and "Ewedu"
To all the lost sons of Africa
This is a clarion call
It is time to return
And make Africa great
To all our friends
Partners in progress alike
Africa celebrates you
History will be kind to you
But someday, visit Africa!
