Africa land of greatness
A land flowing with milk and honey
A land of great mountains,beautiful rivers and streams

A people of great birth,great struggles and great history

A friend of the sun,moon and stars
Mother of white,yellow and red races
The foundation of world civilization
Education beginnings with you
And writing your gift to the world
Africa home of proud warriors
Home of beautiful mothers
Mothers of glorious sons and daughters
Mother of Nelson Mandela,Chinua Achebe,Chimamanda Adiche and Toyosi Akerele

Africa my Africa
My love for you
And your love for me
Will have no end
