NUBIAN SON (Pan-African Poetry)
Nature smiled, The sky came alive The very day I was born, Festivals were held And the sound of drum beats filled the air Of this beautiful Nubian village Whose soil my ancestors lived upon.. I am an African son I am an African boy.

My skin is the home Of the rays from the sun, I speak the truth It is evidence in the colour of my skin Chocolate is my dignity, Do not devalue me, I am the beauty of royalty, I am an African son, I am an African boy.

Africa is extraordinary, Our culture is like water Drunk by all Humans Far and wide. The mirror of love Showing all men how to live, That is my pride 'cause I am an African son, I am an African boy.

I have got the bones of two lions, So do not dare challenge me, I was trained to be bold And fight like a warrior, I do not have any Atom to fear in me, I am stronger than a bear, I know the secrets of life 'cause I am African son, I am an African boy.

I am a prince That possesses the wealth of textiles, The flowing minerals And potentials both in discipline, An extraordinary inventor Dwelling within the coast Of the four corners of Kernet, I am an African son, I am an African boy.

My dark skin is the light To every situation, Even amidst the darkness of racial discrimination, I promise to fight 'cause I've gat my ancestral diamond jewel On my negro neck, I must impress my father's departed soul, I am an African son, I am an African boy.

My father is the great African king The one you read about in history. My mother is the Amazing queen Blessed with beauty and strength, Their black blood flows in my veins. These beads are a testament Of my royalty 'cause I am an African son, I am an African boy.

I would show my courage Over hills, overland and overseas. I would show the world That I am wise just like my father, I took the beauty of my mother, I am an offspring of wisdom. My continent is not the dark world. I am an African son, I am an African boy.

My fears melted in watery flames 'cause the spirits of the Nile lives inwards me, quickening me when I am weak. I am not the son of evil my heart is as pure as the gods, I lighten the world with my illumination 'cause I am an African son, I am an African boy. Olútóbi Adeyemi (talk) 09:23, 5 February 2021 (UTC)
