The grieved lands of Africa
In the infamous sensation of the stunning perfume of the Flower
Crushed in the forest

In the dream soon undone in jingling of gaolers keys
And in the stifled laughter and victorious voice of laments

In themselves and with us alive
They bubble up in dreams

By the antelope
In the perpetual alliance of everything that lives
They shout out the sound of life
Shout it
25. Even the corpses thrown up by the Atlantic
In putrid offering of incoherence
And death in the clearness
Of river
They live

In the harmonious sound of conscience
Contained in the honest blood of men
In the strong desire of men
In the sincerity

The grieved land Africa
Because we are living
40. And are imperishable particles
Of the grieved land of Africa.
