Greatest Kingdom



At a daybreak in 1957
I saw the land prostrating to a greatest kingdom
Full of custodians, and freedom.

Caring and unity,
And love for the land.

The kingdom remember,
The blood of losses.
The black of the people.
The gold of wealth.
And the tree of health.

The kingdom was raised again by a greatest man “KWAME NKRUMAH”
