Born Ghanaian – Poem by Kwaku Amoako Fosu-gyeabour

The pride of Africa
I am born Ghanaian

The tamed wildlife and evergreen forest
The development and democracy
I am born Ghanaian

The hospitality and courtesy
The wealthy history and monument
I am born Ghanaian

The gateway to West Africa
The modern economic history
I am born Ghanaian

The loving people
The educated mind
I am born Ghanaian

The peace and unity
The freedom and justice
I am born Ghanaian

The rich culture
The adventurous descendants
I am born Ghanaian

The music and dance
The proverbs and maxims
I am born Ghanaian

The trade and industry
The production and labour
I am born Ghanaian

The game of football
The entire sporting itinerary
I am born Ghanaian

The conducive environment
The serene atmosphere
I am born Ghanaian

The chiefs and royals
The golden stool and Ashanti kingdom
I am born Ghanaian

The gold and diamond
The manganese and bauxite
I born Ghanaian

The great leaders and freedom fighters
The professionalism
I am born Ghanaian

The great poets and writers
The folklore and storytellers
I am born Ghanaian

So I am!
And proud I am!

I am born Ghanaian…
