Gold On Mortal’s Feet: A Tribute for Madiba by Dr Soyombo Ayomikun

2 Min Read
Nelson Mandela was revered in South Africa until his death in 2014

1. We once heard about the warrior Achilles

   Who in a gruesome battle screamed ‘is there no one else?’

   Who chose to go to war & perish to be forever remembered

   Rather than to follow the quiet path & forever be forgotten

2.We didn’t live in the days of the mythical Achilles

   But we saw the magical days of Madiba

   The one who fought to hew down racial walls

   One we can’t but forever remember as a god

3.As I watched his interment tears welled in my eyes

   In wonderment of how a common man became a universal phenomenon

   By choosing to be slammed into the dark that his land may find light

   A light so bright piercing all of the world

4.What more inspiration can we get in a life time

   Than that from a man who in his land embraced Golgotha

   All to be resurrected after decades of pains

   Transformed into a force so huge to be contained

5.Because he had a dream Africa found a dream

   His passions setting countless lives ablaze

   Though set free from our sad world his footsteps we still hear

   Thuds knocking on our hearts to never sleep

6.How I wish his spirit forever stirs ours

   That we may never rest until liberation be found

   How I wish that from Nigeria arises a leader

   Whose eventual passing will cause the world’s breath to cease

7.After 27 years in a hole we stumbled upon a mystery

   A vessel cladded with wisdom,humility & forgiveness

   We can’t but forever wonder how the heavens achieved the feat

   How the rare gold he is got balanced on a mortal’s feetGold On Mortal’s Feet: Madiba
