Come away you savage city girls and boys. Come away to the natural countryside. What is it that makes you think you’re civilized? Your dry urban toil or white collar employ? That break your bones, waste your days and leave you pain? Come and feel the sleekness of nature’s valour Come and see the meekness of the wind’s colour You have around this place, but so much to gain.
You boast of your club life how you drink and smoke But you know just how too often you go broke. You brag of the cars you drive but it’s funny How you’d take to fright on sighting a donkey. Your girls think they are as beautiful as they seem But come and behold a country girl after a swim No make-up, no sparkling ornaments or lace Just a soaked wrapper, dangling beads and her face.
You consume too much obscene books and videos That you know nothing about your inbuilt radio. You dine with Satan everyday by your ways Though you never miss a service on church days. Such is the hypocrisy of city life And such is the wastefulness of all your strife. Come away to learn something about nature And free yourself from urban drill and torture.
There is so much left here for you to enjoy If only you put your city pride aside And in quiet, ask yourself the question why Why the city seems stripped of all forms of joy. Come away and eat the freshness of our grains; Drink from our salinity and get your cure. Our herbs possess a potency that is sure And our serenity to soothe your tired brain.
