Rumble In The Jungle Poem by Paras Saxena

Rumble In The Jungle



Ahead of him was a hurricane
Some said "he won`t sustain"
People who said "he might die in the ring"
Once screamed "he`s the king, master of the ring"
He was teasing and playing with pain
Dancing with bruises in blood`s rain
He yelled "stop trying to hurt me and hurt me"
Anything is possible, that`s what he taught me
He told me this is life
He taught me the art of getting by
Life will try to blow your brains out
Know it from it start
There`s no easy way out
Know it in your heart
Never give up hope
`cause mountains don`t fall in one blow
His people filled the atmosphere
All shouting out his name, everywhere
And ll I could hear was
"Ali bomaye, Ali bomaye"
"Ali bomaye, Ali bomaye"
Too strong was that hurricane
But stronger was the mountain
Hurricane hit its every part
But he got big balls, iron heart
He stood tall with a smile on the face
He was always the greatest, he knew his place
His people filled the atmosphere
All shouting out his name, everywhere
And all I could hear was
"Ali bomaye, Ali bomaye"
"Ali bomaye, Ali bomaye"
