WANDER

In this dip soil,

This very earth

What is high, what is low?

Who is king, who is slave?

I wander

Because you are dark,

I touch you with my hand,

My left hand

And my palm was open greedily to receive

But still giving me free

Why?

I wander

Mother; princess of the Nile

Possessed with spirits

Crowning my head

With Gold, Bronze and silver.

A prince?

I wander

The Sheppard that haven his flocks

The one with an iron shield

The God of lives

Since when you are gone

The herd’s no more

Lions chased us

Hyenas mock us

We have falling

Some are striving

When will there be safe again

We wander.
