Hey! Pacy hunter
I thought you were my brother
You are dark like 'our' mother
Should I be afraid of this banter?
Awoonor! Awoonor! Run like the panther
The earth is really a peaceful matter
No longer afraid to hold your anger
Embrace the friendly hunger


They could gloat for whatever wickedness
This killings in Africa is too mindless
Is this really poverty or illiterate redress?
Religious or political harness?
Al-shabab!!! You have murdered
Scattered and plundered
All those you have angered
Families weeping the unfathered


All of us will someday kiss the earth
There is always a redress on your death
Which I'm sure one day, will be red
You will be laid on a burial bed
We won't breathe the dust forever
If you scatter pellets, will it be forever?
There is a season to lose, evil diva
Sullen act of wickedness on a lame river


All of you together is a shortage to Awoonor
Kenyatta and Mahama is it yet uhuru?
Sun of shaka Zulu
Smile on us! Forget this shabab burrow
Who has nothing to offer our world
But deceit of religion on a defenceless mall
Women and children buried in a hall
Writing long history of hatred on a cold wall


And painted our Awoonor on a graffiti
Bragging infamy for countries to writ
To mourn a man who went to read wit
Covered in emotionless wreathe
Our earth is stained again Awoonor
This religion is a provoking donor
Of grief instead of honour
What did we get? Bloodied Awoonor


Legacy has been stained again
What is your gain?
For gunning defenceless men in a rain...
Just to gloat? And inflict pain
Rest in utopia with the utopians
Cursed remains those fallopians
That bore those barbarians
May they all die in defiance
In memory of Prof. Koffi Awoonor
