You are the one, the unbeatable of all time
When motion is still and helpless
When companions are scarce and wobble
When hope seems not to motivate and sightless
You are the one, who emerges sagaciously like a brighter moon.
You are the one, coming and the crests arise
Like a rainbow crescent in the sky
Like a supple wind gentle on the skin
Like speechless water filling the thirst
You are the one, coming and the earth moves wholly.
You are the one, coming, a hybrid of modern-day intellect
That made a strenuous impact on good governance
That gives strength to the low and weak
That touches lives with a gem of ignition
You are the one, coming and resonating more than an ovation.
You are the one, coming, the emblem of striving and success
The chemistry that made the politic of a black nation mystical
A ‘City Boy’ that breath with the clerical string of a goddess
The legend that made history far beyond his time
‘Emi Lo Kan’ is coming, the stealth of an African pride.
