	Poverty! 
Why hath thou chosen Africa  
as your dwelling place? 
Poverty has trapped us all, 
that we all live in abject poverty. 
Our children have never  
tasted the joy in riches. 
Our soil is extremely poor. 
And we are recognized by  
the poverty of our dress 
Our continent is poverty-stricken. 
We all live below poverty line, 
and our elected leaders never bother 
about our state of being poor. 
Africa! Never mind. For after the  
rain comes the sunshine. I know someday, 
poverty shall be chased out of thy land. 
Rejoice Africa, for you shall be greater 
and even richer than 
the wealthy continents of today.
