African woman



I am an African so as my country
View the scenery utter Unity
I am identified by fountains and mountains
View the Drakensberg Mountain...

The hill is not too high for my roots and ancient pride
The sky is not too far fetched than my origins of Ubuntu
I accomodation language I validate  salutation of integrity
I'm accompanied by icons and legends of history like  Nelson Mandela
I leave a mark like Merriam Makeba
When I recite my tribe I proclaim it by the singing of Steve Kekana
 I breeze jazz like Hugh Masekela

Green pigment transqualize my tithe of breath taking landscape of my mother nature I am black don't overlook my afro
It's not a yeastless micro
 
I carry my pride to identify and respect
I carry my royalty in talent , a black woman of Africa I  bred it
Diversity runs within veins
It's my first embryo now it's a nation
My beauty overflows like an eraption of lava

My  breath  glimmers rivers
Freedom I withold roars to future generations
I am a leader I'm a lioness I'm a black african woman
