- My country -
My country,
Crooks in charged
Abusers of functions
Ambushed thrones and allocate
Juicy spots to selves and cronies
My country,
Despots on throne,
Rule the roost with impunity
Exploit and deprive us
Unleashed pains so excruciating
My country,
Arbitrariness order of today
Untamed, unchecked randomness
Cronyism, nepotism and tribalism
Reign supreme with impunity
My country,
Full of clumsy morons
Mean men reign
All incompetent and complacent
Grossly inefficient
My country,
Greedy elements, with
Outlandish taste,
All addicted to
Extravagant luxury at our expense
My country,
Folks of yesteryears,
With superfluous brains, and
Minds so archaic
All redundant characters
My country,
Despondency and disillusion
Deprivation clutch us tight
The bourgeois unperturbed
Faking oblivious
My country,
Myopic, clueless and inept
Emperors sit tight,
Unleashes Armageddon on us
My country,
Cruel men exploit our naivity
Ride our docility
Clashes our heads, locked our horns
And left us in anarchy
My country,
Hope and expectations truncated
All promises cancelled
Indifferent to our plights
Yet abuse our sensitivity
My country,
We're chained and choked
Oppressed and suppressed
Left to wallow in distressed. Then,
Tortured and starved us to death
My country,
Our life worth nothing
Cheaper than flies
We're daily led to butchery
Carnage and bloodbath everywhere
My country,
Land of abundant
Endowed with wealth beyond measure
Outrageous potentials untapped
Endless possibilities encompass
Nature and human resources across
Yet we're stricken in penury
