Investment for development
"Writ Wit"
Out of the outburst of man
Speaks the innermost
Our pains and plan
We have made known to you most
From our soul box and crest
We have cried out to you in the way
we know best
the road of peace we have plied
as we express our plights
all our pleas
all our cries
is your investment in us
for a no low profit will you get
at the verge of ruin and destruction
is any nation
who with contempt treats its youth
for her development will never be smooth
you hope for a better tomorrow
try reasoning out with us
the leaders of tomorrow
who are like palm kernels
your investment in us
hammers out the hidden treasures
to make tomorrow count
let us first make today count
by investing in us the youth of this time
to squeeze out the juice in our lime.
