Father of my life
I commit myself to you
Gone are the days I decided without your help
but today I make you the author of my deeds
...
Shall there be freedom for liberal thought?
No! The white man has all agencies bought
Perfume from Nature's rosy Hill Tops
Shall fall on us spiritual dew drops
...
Please don't shoot me
I have done nothing wrong
I'm only going home
And I'll be there before long
...
