ARISE AFRICA.
Arise, Africa, from slumber's embrace,
Awaken your spirit, let suffering erase.
In the depths of despair, do not remain,
For the dawn of hope shall soothe your pain.
Are you asleep or dead, the world may ask,
But dear beloved mother, we take on the task
To raise your voice, to share your plight,
To ignite a spark that will shine so bright.
Your children yearn for a better day,
Where hunger subsides, and poverty will sway.
From the dry, barren lands to rivers that flow,
We seek solutions, ways to help you grow.
Education, dear Africa, holds the key,
Unlocking the doors to a future so free.
Investing in knowledge, empowering minds,
Liberating hearts, breaking shackles that bind.
Healthcare, oh mother, is a pressing need,
Providing healing for hearts that bleed.
Access to medicine, to cure the ill,
Ensuring well-being, a divine will.
Infrastructure, Africa, needs your care,
Bridging the gaps, rebuilding what's bare.
Roads to connect, bringing progress near,
Power grids to light up every frontier.
But do not despair, for solutions lie ahead,
In unity, resilience, we'll forge paths to tread.
Empowering women, embracing their worth,
Fostering entrepreneurship, unlocking their birth.
Arise, Africa, let your spirit rise,
As nations unite, reaching for the skies.
A tapestry of cultures, colors, and dreams,
May your lands overflow with prosperity's streams.
Together we stand, hand in hand,
Fighting for justice, reclaiming our land.
Arise, Africa, let your voice be heard,
For a brighter tomorrow, for freedom's reward.
