Africa

It is the fire of the bushes 
And the winds of the wilderness 
And the dust of the skies 
That gives Africa its name 
It is the gods of the deep 
And the devils of the high 
And the fowl of the air 
And the angels that care: 
It is the green of life 
And the dark brown of souls 
And the clay pot of life by the Msoro tree 
And the waters of the Zambezi 
Freely but furiously falling to form the famous Victoria Falls 
And, at dawn, the sound of nature 
And, at night, the moon of beauty 
And the nature we nurture 
That gives Africa its name 
This is Africa.
