Transmutes into golden earth and brown of labor
Black veins that sing for a love that rises
To blue freedom branching out to billion voices
Blooming a promise in such octaves
Springs and snaps into moons of wonder
Countless wings that lift and flutter
Beehive of hope, diamond of memory
Africa my love, yes Africa, the flashing pearl
The panther of time distills the midnight lily
The majestic pride that walks the grounds with silent joy
Is your innocent heart guarding the eternity...
