I dream of Africa
"I DREAM OF AFRICA”
As I dream of Africa
My spirit does rejoice
In terms of happiness
It is my only choice
White sand beaches
Ocean shades of blue
Such tranquil beauty
Speak to a heart so true
The pride of my people
Runs eternal & so deep
History of my descendants
Such love makes me weep
Rich colors and textures
Always make me smile
Answer to life’s questions
Across the shimmering Nile
A world unto itself
A paradise so revealed
Wealth is not treasure
But acting what we feel
A homeland majestic
Lift our voice in song
In the arms of Africa
Is right where I belong
I cherish you Africa
Loved before others
A land rich in name
With mysteries to discover
I dream of Africa
And it speaks to me
In the arms of Africa
Is where I long to be
As I dream of Africa
My spirit does rejoice
In terms of happiness
It is my only choice
White sand beaches
Ocean shades of blue
Such tranquil beauty
Speak to a heart so true
The pride of my people
Runs eternal & so deep
History of my descendants
Such love makes me weep
Rich colors and textures
Always make me smile
Answer to life’s questions
Across the shimmering Nile
A world unto itself
A paradise so revealed
Wealth is not treasure
But acting what we feel
A homeland majestic
Lift our voice in song
In the arms of Africa
Is right where I belong
I cherish you Africa
Loved before others
A land rich in name
With mysteries to discover
I dream of Africa
And it speaks to me
In the arms of Africa
Is where I long to be
