In Africa's heart, where nature's treasures unfurl, There lies a land, the pearl of Africa, Uganda.Bathed in sunlight, kissed by gentle rains, A nation of glory, where beauty forever remains.

ISLAND

ISLAND. Excortion to an island all face to the sea, No ship for all but canoe for each, No help to paddle all to paddle for self, Parents to sponsor no follow to travel, Teacher to tutor not tutor to travel, Sea our classroom we paddle by ourselves. Class of sea as everyone paddling, Different name for different canoe, Same direction but going like fingers, Same dream with different effort, One knowledge but some dull to paddle, First the target but one for the target. Many behind playing and paddling, Mate's forward they paddle and play, Study as paddling drop paddle for tide, Hope on tide the tide at test, Pray for tide drop paddle for tide, Tide to against and sink they fail. Island we reach not reach by all, Many regret journey and again they see, Few at back the failures to repeat, Excortion again another again to paddle, Island with a name they call it SUCCESS.
