The calm in your eyes,
The sweetness in your smile,
Paints a tomorrow
So lovely and beautiful.
Love died
Only to rise again
When my eyes fell upon
Your dolce sky.
Whoever sees you has seen Africa
For your beauty radiates
With its very essence.
Some day,
I will learn how to spell,
Recreate
Africa anew.
For in your womb,
I see Africa
Nestling into handsome sons,
Pretty and lovely daughters.
