"O God, bless our land of Malawi." a prayer for a warm hearted nation, the first line that ignited the mind of a hero he did a patriotic act, yet lived unknown. Of a beautiful land, of peace, freedom and unity, he sung He prayed that our hearts be joined in combat against fear Against hunger, disease and envy, he prayed. His words made a home in the heart of a nation Fervent and effective, hence peace reigned This prayer stayed on the lips of the nation Called upon mother Malawi to bring out her best Of the unsung hero, i write, Not to praise him but to acknowledge his role, The words he wrote on the tablets of our hearts, A song he sung to the tune of many heartstrings Even if we still sing his song, Of him a song was never sung He did a patriotic act but died penniless
