Drought An Enemy Of Progress Poem by owen van d smart

Drought, Drought, Drought
What an onerous being you are
How you came into our country
Like a thief at night
O... dear drought, how though
has stolen happiness and joy

Drought, Drought, Drought
How notorious thou art, known
as the legend of destruction O..
dear drought we know you came to
destroy and take away our livestock

Drought, Drought, Drought
How have we forsaken you?
That you cause us this much
pain and suffering, an innocuous
nation like Namibia O... dear
drought, what wrong have we done
that you cause us this much pain

Drought, Drought, Drought
You might be scandalous but
let me remind you, that you have
come to the land of the brave
O... dear drought, you are
trampling on dangerous grounds

Drought, Drought, Drought
We will soon get rid of you,
overcome you, and forget you
ever existed O... dear Drought
We will soon bid farewell and
never meet again.
