lirik lagu khanyisile mthetwa - wish poem

Loading...

i wish those tall ships at africa’s shores
had dropped anchor to plant crops there
sugar cane, tobacco, cotton and coffee
instead they filled the hungry bellies of holds with africans
and set sail wanting nothing
wanting nothing from that big place
that wasn’t diamond, gold, ivory, flesh
i wind the clocks back
and turn the ships around
not a single bullet, whip or cutlass
sound to deafen our ears for centuries
no atlantic route of bones from people
dumped into the sea to fall away
