| When will my lecturer Call my marks without
 His palm stretched out?
 
 Or my classmates understand
 That the score of their
 Attempt is better-off?
 
 And our leaders?
 To understand that the
 Strength of every nation.
 Is us!
 
 The time is close bye
 When we shall feel no more
 But pain in our struggle to
 Survive, that we may take hold
 Our future in our palms
