Freedom Poem by Benjamin Paa Willie

On Ghana Television some seventeen years ago
I was aged probably four or so
Each while Mandela will come and go
The song Freedom Is Coming Tomorrow
Shall spontaneously follow
Each moment Mandela will come and go
Freedom Is Coming Tomorrow shall routinely follow
Freedom, I never saw it come but go
Freedom your nature I cannot know
Dad what is freedom? Oh!
When is tomorrow?
That look on his face, oh no!
Even our Fathers do not know
Then when will our ignorance cease to grow?
