We dance to the beating of her talking drums.
We join in the singing of her heart-felt melodies.
Who is she?
Mama Africa is her name
Survival is her fame!
We see the awakening to her worth is nigh.
We rejoice that the return of her
dispersed is on the rise.
Who is she?
Mama Africa is her name.
Garveyism is her fame!
We feed on the delicacies of her culture.
We listen to the wisdom of her folklore tales.
Who is she?
Mama Africa is her name.
Survival is her fame!
We see the end of flight from
her shores is nigh.
We rejoice for the healing of her sores
is on the rise.
Who is she?
Mama Africa is her name.
Nkrumahism is her fame!
We see the unity of her children is nigh
We rejoice for the ending of
slave mentality is on the rise.
Who is she?
Mama Africa is her name
Pan Africanism is her flame!
