Proud Of Africa Poem by Isatou Juwara

I am proud and proud indeed
i shall not propound cause am strongly bound,
to say it loud and let it sound
even as i drown and am down.

The African cultures are most powerful
and has always been so colourful,
allow not they destroy our cultures
those vultures with no culture.

Proud should we be to be Africans
together should we stand to make Africa,
for the development of dear Africa
Lies on our very palms.
