I AM AN AFRICAN. I am an African Not because I was born there But because my heart beats with Africa’s I am an African Not because my skin is black But because my mind is engaged by Africa I am an African Not because I live on its soil But because my soul is at home in Africa When Africa weeps for her children My cheeks are stained with tears When Africa honours her elders My head is bowed in respect When Africa mourns for her victims My hands are joined in prayer When Africa celebrates her triumphs My feet are alive with dancing I am an African For her blue skies take my breath away And my hope for the future is bright I am an African For her people greet me as family And teach me the meaning of community I am an African For her wildness quenches my spirit And brings me closer to the source of life When the music of Africa beats in the wind My blood pulses to its rhythm And I become the essence of music When the colours of Africa dazzle in the sun My senses drink in its rainbow And I become the palette of nature When the stories of Africa echo round the fire My feet walk in its pathways And I become the footprints of history I am an African Because she is the cradle of my birth And nurtures an ancient wisdom I am an African Because she lives in the world’s shadow And bursts with a radiant luminosity I am an African Because she is the land of tomorrow And I recognise her gifts as sacred samson. |

saintsam: You are an African because you had no choice in the matter period!!! |
Re: A Wish by Yusufadeto(m): 2:16am On Apr 23, 2007 |
Am happy to be African especially Nigerian, because it's the best thing that could ever happen with me, we are blessed by God and we have so much gift and talent, am sure Africa will dominate the world sometimes soon, hoping to be alive then |
Re: A Wish by saintsam(m): 8:50am On Apr 23, 2007 |
@SMC SOME AFRICANS MOSTLY NIGERIANS TEND TO DENY BEING AFRICAN AND TAKE OVER THE WESTERN HERITAGE. I LOVE AFRICA, I BELIEVE IN THE DREAM OF AFRICA. |
Re: A Wish by SMC(f): 5:48pm On Apr 23, 2007 |
Yusufadeto: @ Yusuf, DREAM ON DREAMER. NIGERIA IS A LAND OF ABUNDANCE/PLENTY, BUT ALSO A LAND OF SHATTERED DREAMS. THIS IS ONE COUNTRY THAT IS NUMERO UNO WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT LOST POTENTIALS. , I WEEP FOR MY MOTHERLAND . saintsam:@Saintsam, I am not saying that this is not true, all I am saying is you are an African because you had no choice in the matter originally [I stand by that statement still]. |
Re: A Wish by saintsam(m): 8:52am On Apr 24, 2007 |
@SMC I do have a choice, I can deny my identity and, get my skin turnover like Michael Jackson, and take over the western heritage, but am proud to be an african. U are rite when u said, nigeria is full of shatterd dreams , but I must tell u somethn, it is one thn for u to have a dream, it is another for ur dream to have u, most pple have wishes and not dreams (now am being figurative), I hope u get me. |
Re: A Wish by Yusufadeto(m): 5:30pm On Apr 24, 2007 |
You right Sam, it's good to have a dream, because u will always have something to hope for and work towards, to my own understanding, you are nothing, if u do not have a dream and ambition in life, because you just working without any purpose, you just working for the sake of it. |
