MAIDUGURI
Ndine Biafra ndakhala pamafuta
Ndikutulutsa uranium ndi tiyi
Ndadzaza ndi phulusa ndi mnofu waku Sambisa
Kunyamula mluzu ndi zonyansa za kutembenuka kolakwika
Kuwotcha ana aakazi chamadzulo
Kukulitsa mawu m'mphepo komanso pamatabwa
Ndinabadwa ndi njala kuti ndikhale mfulu
Sindinabadwe mfulu
Ndikusanza xenophobia ndi zakale
Kubzala ufulu ku Volta ya Sankara
Ndimayimba ku Congo yomwe idataya mkate, nyengo ndi mchenga. Ankhandwe oledzera ndi kuwawa akufuna kufa
Bujumbura, akuwonera Ebola akudya chakudya chamadzulo ndi republic
Copper ali ndi pakati Kalinga-linga akuvina mumdima
Imbani Maiduguri, chizindikiro cha nkhondo yosatha
Imfa ikuyenda yamaliseche munkhalango zamakutu za Warange
Ana akubzala ziphuphu ngati chimanga ku Bokungu
Osalakwitsa kutafuna
Ana opanga mbendera
Tatopa ndikunyoza komanso mbewu
Propaganda ankhandwe akuwotcha kuti aziwadyetsa ana awo ndipo
Amayi agalu
Zowombera zokhala zikugubuduza boma pamavalidwe azovunda
Malirime olimbira atakhazikika pamadyerero ena
Mbale, Umphawi ukukhala pansi pa khungu ngati kuyabwa!
