I am Dinka and Ngok is me!

May 9, 2013 (SSNA) — The change that Abyei needs is inside, 
And together we can if we all decide
As such, you and I are “Ngok people”
But first I know it must start inside of me.

I am Dinka and Ngok is me,

It is Abyei which is in me,

Abyei is my present and future,

It is my candle and everything I desire

The land of our forefathers for life!

Oh! Tell me

My Ngok people,

Are we freely free?

Where lies our future?

Where lays our destiny?

Where are you today?

Are your eyes opened?

Do you have one voice?

Are you aware of referendum?

 

Oh! Abyei my land,

I have you in reality!

 

Though seemingly paining

In passion of our certainty

But I am here to cry,

Telling the world today

Before God and ancestors

That I am a South Sudanese

Believe me!

 

I woke up in the morning from my sleep
Thanking God for the dearly gesture glad

And the love, hope, peace partially sustained,

But why does the tick still sucking blood
When it has long become extremely turgid?
Why did the guest turned a furious pest,
After being given a wonderful social rest?

Oh! Bear in mind that you are not a cat

That is damned to eat innocence rat!

 

I walked a mile to my deadline

Bravely like as soldier in Darfur’s frontline

After an African mediator stuck to guideline

And restored hope to westerners’ lifeline

But left me like a lady ready for adrenaline

But her beauty is truly damned to bikini line

So long scramming to mescaline

Like reggae singer with Léger line

Being traded by gangs to redline

 

I was born to a gentle generation

That left me in societal complication?

But my deep senses of ancestral orientation

Shall guide my daring hope to golden jubilation

And make the set referendum most willing, adoring option!

Because nomadic in Abyei was a citizenry gift of frustration

Before the laws in modern world where there is justice to mediation

Which causes interference today between mechanical devices and man?

Yo! Kiss my soil, leave it for me or stay bearing my wishes without obligation
