The Black tradition
Our land is domesticated by tradition
Africa tradition of inculcation.
Our food is named by tradition
Africa tradition of declaration.
Our herbs and soil portrays our tradition
Africa tradition blessed with fruitful production.
Our mouth speaks louder with fire
With words transporting from one buccal cavity to another.
Our skin tells more of our strength
Oiled with the local ornaments of nature.
Our stream flows in unity
With our clay pot filled with its serenity.
Our mud houses tells of its compartment
With bamboo sticks standing as a pillar of its achievement.
Gray hair speaks words of life
For its age remodeled our step for the future.
Respect pays homage to the old
For the young glue themselves to the wise men mode.
Our dress code makes us look outstandable.
Our dancing steps tells more of our contentment.
Our local delicacies tells more of our origin.
Our locality kept boosting our integrity.
