A poem by Abel

  je te parle de mon continent  
 
 
           L’Afrique à soif
 
Afrique, victime de xénophobie
Afrique, victime de pleurs
Afrique, victime de génocide
Afrique, victime de guerres
     Jusqu’à quand Eternel ?
     Prendra fins ces calamités
     Que connaît notre continent
     Bien qu’indépendant de sa volonté.
          Mon Dieu, créateur de l’univers,
          Des femmes et des hommes pleurent en Afrique
          Les religions t’implorent sur terre
          Daigne arroger l’Afrique de ta paix          Et essuie les larmes de tes fideles.
