I just dream

 I  just dream of walking even a half a mile in your shoes..
 I just dream of possessing a loving  and caring heart like yours
 I just dream of being selfless,non-partisan, full of understanding and wise like you.
  I just dream to care less about power when I have it at my disposal and  can wield it at will
I Just dream of spending most of my life in prison and still refuse to capitalize on it.
   that remains,just but a pipe dream.
Forgiving those who have oppressed my countrymen since time immemorial,
    accepting them as my fellow countrymen too,while we don`t even share the same
   language,color,culture...is unimaginable

Ascending to the presidency after all those years in Robben island and still step down
   after only one term in office,,is unimaginable.
I just dream of how to reach just a quarter of all these
    But here you are
    As Gentle as a babe
    as innocent as an angel
    as loving as Christ himself
  What can we offer you? 
   How do we celebrate you?
   You`ve offered all to us
I heard they were  searching for a saint...
    which saint can be raised from this wicked generation?
    a generation so willing to throw all to the wind for self gratification 
    Gandhi went,mother Teresa too,they snapped it from Luther king
    But alas!! the light they left is still on...yet so bright
At this glorious moment when you are turning ninety two
    we celebrate you like never before.
    Happy birthday Madiba.

RISE UP:
  The Lion is roaring..
Who dares stands on it`s way?
Who dares challenge it`s ways?

Who dares stand on the path least the wrath befell
   him..The Lion is all awake..The Lion has Risen
the Lion is roaming the wilderness..the king is guarding

  his territory..
Rise up..lion..your time is now.
