LITTLE BIRD
Little bird little bird come home
My skies are empty without you
Little bird little bird come home
Your mother is waiting for you
Haven’t you heard she was dying
So often had she tried to walk
Her feet failed her, she’s now crawling
You can’t hear her, as she can’t talk
But I know you can feel her pain
For you are her blood and her breath
You are the shield against the rain
Don’t let her in the arms of death
Little bird!
Each day kills her a thousand times
She will not make it to the door
She begs God to disclose her crimes
And why He took away her core
The odds are no longer serving
They have turned greedy and empty
Remember she was a great queen
Now she’s a slave tied to a tree
Little bird Hope of Africa
Come home and never leave again
Don’t make today my last stanza
Don’t let me take the midnight train.

PROMISING LAND
A land I used to cherish
And a promising one,
A land of merry colourful birds
Flying in a quiet blue sky…
It was the land of my fathers,
It was the land of my mothers,
The land of the father of my mothers,
The land of the mother of my fathers,
The promising land
When I was my ancestors,
When I was the ancestor of my ancestors,
When I was the lion, when I was the oak tree,
When I was the king praised by the rivers,
When the fresh green nature
The breath of which used to caress me,
Whispered me the answers to my questions…
Nature and I were one being,
Sky and earth were of the same colour,
I could go wherever I wanted,
A single smile was the key to happiness,
But now I’m a long way home,
I’m wandering in the desert among shadows,
Searching for the shadow of my ancestors,
The shadow of my promising land.

FROM DESPERATION
Dear, my heart is in pain
Since you took the night train,
I yelled out day and night,
Cried for you to come back,
Even asked the Lord why
We could not both survive,
Why he did not let me
Leave with you my lady;
Only the noisy steel
Of each single cold wheel
Is giving an answer:
It’s over! It’s over!
But I still can’t believe
That my pain can’t be eased,
That I will fight the cold
Without your smile to hold;
You were calling me Dear
When they called your name near,
You should pay for others,
For some of your brothers,
You my one, my Springtime,
My Moon and my Sunshine,
I cannot help crying,
Without you I’m sinking;
The desperate mind. Source: Internet images
How can I rise again,
Can they, lords of this rain,
Poor men amongst the poor,
Show the way to that door…
Your train is far away,
Too far from the next day,
Only another train
Can heal me from my pain.

LOVE THEN
If you can hate, why don’t you Love,
Don’t be a snake, just be a dove,
Rise like the sun, open up your arms,
Be that sweet home, keeping us warm,
Make the world smile, happy for real,
Play like a child, who is just healed,
Respect this Life, She’s your true Friend,
For the Future, walk hand-in-hand;
Love instead of hate
If you can Love, why do you hate,
Take off that glove, don’t hurt your mate,
Don’t blame him please, if he’s like coal,
You’re meant to live, for the same goal,
You sons of pains, forget your past,
Snow brought you chains, just bring her grass,
Colours of gold, colours of blood,
Don’t turn cold; we’re from one God;
If you can hate, then you can Love,
Do not frustrate, the Heart of Lord,
Give Him the name, that shall please you,
He’s still the same; He’s just one Truth,
He’s colourless; He’s all on Earth,
Slave and Highness, He’s Life and Death,
He’s the Shepherd, no one’s above,
He’s you and I, the perfect Love.

A STORY OF US
I need to tell you a story,
A story of you, a story of me,
A story of the place that we lost,
A story of the land with no lust;
It is your story, it is my story,
It is the story of unity;
I need to tell you a story,
A story that you will see
If you walk to the bright future,
That sweet home with no door,
It is your story, it is my story,
It is the story of milk and honey;
A story of us
I need to tell you a story,
A story that you have to be,
Unlike that one you lead,
That one which makes eyes bleed,
It is your story, it is my story,
It is the story of fair and friendly;
I need to tell you a story,
A story of beauty and eternity,
A story of here to be there,
A story of there to come near,
I need to tell you that story,
A story of true and happy.
