A night of irrefutable entertainment
The theatre tells of tragic tales of a nation
Sorrow beclouded the plot of nights
Succumbed to the influence of gore
Like Joy acting behind the scenes.
A place we called home
Our eyes hunts the lost glory
Where our hopes was slayed
now, our nights of plights loses sight
Leading us to lost in the abyss of darkness.
A place we called home
We were enslaved in our home
Fashioned sorrow as peace
In their cup of frustration
And made us fall in love with our chians.
A place we called home
Our hope was bewitched by our own leaders
The lyrics and rhythms of our anthem, betrayed
Of the pledge they could not upholds
the wind is not in our threshold
To follow to the jury, for freedom.
