Blow loud the mighty
vuvuzela over the hills of Africa
Steaming hot like
lava oozing out of the ancient Pangaea
Let it blast like
the suddenness of a bazooka
Let this not be a
lullaby to send kids to sleep after an episode of diarrhoea
Let the ancient
kings of Egypt bow to an everglowing African star
Breathe-in and wait
for the echoing chants from warriors down under
Madiba!! The
troublemaker!!
We shall call you the
lovemaker
The African soil is
soiled
Your prison cell is
imprisoned
Apartheid is a part
of history we will not hide
Blessed beyond
measure we salute you with pleasure
Segregation has a
seizure
Light these candles
of memorial and democracy would smile
Africa is in love
with a troublemaker
Madiba The
Troublemaker
We shall call you the
lovemaker
Let's observe a
minute silence for the old Africa
At last on these
shores an African child shouts Eureka to new Africa
Nkrumah has waited
long for this union
I bet the ancestral
world has laid a red carpet but like Aladdin he would fly
SSShhhh!! Listen to
Soweto cry and the constellations respond.. "Oh my"
Pray for
reincarnation to be true
Wish against wish…
Africa is in love with a troublemaker
Madiba… The
Troublemaker
You were a lovemaker
27years is a price
tearfully paid for that shout of freedom
Now new slaves
eulogize the leader of liberation
With an echoing ring
of foreign dependence and indigenous starvation
Africa hates Africa
I pray that as these
flickers of life fade away
Africa will love
again
Because Africa has
always been in love with a troublemaker.
