“Hear me now Right here I should speak Right here I should cry Right here I should shout Right here I should soak Hear me now ah! The sky of death Lives parish on the hand of death People die on the earth without sound Hear me now ah! Voices fade without hope Voices fade without an ear, Voices fade without anyone Hear me now ah! I should speak! Hear me now ah! I should cry! Hear me now ah! I should shout! Hear me now ah! I should soak! Speak! The mournful earth is bleeding Cry! The heavens are dark and dead Shout! Should we mend? Soak let the river abide with my soul” African ArtDepth Of ColourAfrican Anthology Author:Tapiwanaishe Pamacheche
