Nito Z
We ask not of a country but of homeland,
Of refuge when we were a naked band.
The land we cared for and calls home,
The land we roamed and lend our lives for.
We've embraced change but never 'chains',
and a war ensued for 'it' for many decades.
One attacked the people for the land,
The other defended the land for their people.
Many lives were lost, on both sides,
Our lives were taken and we gave it away,
They came to take and to give theirs anyway,
War is cruel and unsparing, it divides.
Though, now us both have settled for peace,
A time where us both lives in harmony.
But there are taints still unresolved,
The mother owes a reparation to her daughter.
For the land and the people are segregated,
We cannot live on with uncertainty.
We can forget what was done to us,
But can't forgive for what is being done for us.
The land we ask off are not stolen or borrowed,
those sands are the ashes of our ancestors.
We only ask of You to give back our identity,
thy people Ye and Ay have identified.
A flag shall be hoisted above our homes today,
I had, have and will even sing the Anthem with pride!
I know we've come these far under your care,
Will grown together give us now what we hold dear
