We think of others but do we think of you
the poor famished and suffering to
travelling miles without water searching for crust crum a mea morsel to eat
as the sun burns down and all around is death decay and starvation to
No rains have come for a years to you
as cattle have long gone and passed away as rivers and watering holes and dried up and suffered the same decay
Is there or will there be much hope for you
and will it spread across the rest of african continent too
the famine and drought which has come and haunted you.
Life is cruel and fate has been to you
for centuries you have lived a simple life with its harsh realities too
But even you with all your traditional ways
cant cope or survive what nature has sent you these days
may god listen to your prayers and bring hope to you to
with rain water and food so you can live your lives again
and survive too.
