DEAR AFRICA

Awake, thou sleeping heart!
Awake, and kiss
The love-lorn brow
Of this ebon lass
Dear Africa,
Whose virgin charms
Ensure the love-lit hearts
Of venturing youth
From other lands.

Awake, sweet Africa
Demand that love,
Thou sleeping heart!

When the all-summer sun
Paints the leafy boughs
With golden rays,
Know then, thou sleeping heart,
Dear Africa stands
Knocking at the door.

By Michael Dei-Anang
