When I’m big, I’ll be rich and famous
So I must study and work hard today,
My houses, cars and clothes would be glamorous
I’ll sure have everything I need in the biggest way.

When I’m Big

+3Show Me Your Friends

+1Show me your friend and I’ll tell who you are
If it’s a good one you’ll shine like a star
But if it’s a bad one you’ll end up being a fix
You better be careful with whom you mix
Some pretend to be friends but are foes
So, take your time before you trust some folks.

When Will It Be? (Abecedarius)

0And now I remember back in those days,
Beginning from elementary school till subsequent stages,
Chiefly of the maxims we hear our teachers say:
‘Do your best and leave the rest!’ stressed the sages,
Especially: ‘you are the leaders of tomorrow’…geez!
Aa-aa-ah, you are the leaders of tomorrow? Huh?
But I was a juvenile then, now I’m much more older, or
Could [...]
Our Love’s Forever

0I will love you forever
For we will walk together,
Our hearts will be as one
We’ll hold each other tight till setting sun
Together we will weather the storm.
Come rain or sunshine, whatever betides
Together we shall put obstacles beside
May God help me to so keep this love too,
That it mightn’t be mere words of mouth as some do
And [...]
My Pearl My Dove My Angel

+1My wonderful pearl,
Your love: money cannot procure
For your value is worth far more,
You mean so much to me.
My lovely dove,
When I hear your sweet voice, it thrills me so
And your affection satisfies my soul,
I’m so blessed to have you as mine.
My sweet angel,
You are so kind and all beautiful
And such a guardian-lover too,
God gave you [...]
Live Your Dream

0Why do you stand down?
When you are meant to stand out
The world is waiting right outside your door
What are you waiting for?
Come on, here’s your chance to live.
Don’t let it slip through your hand
Release the giant within and step out
Be free to live your dream and stand,
Let your spirit fly above the clouds
And be [...]
We Are All Beautiful

0We are all beautiful,
For we’re all God’s wonderful creature
When He made us male and female then-
God looked and saw that it was all good.
He made some big and some small,
Some are young and some are old
Some are white and some are black
Some are short and some are tall.
No matter where you come from too,
Whatever the [...]
Ain’t Giving Up

0Ain’t giving up
No matter what’s up,
I’m moving up!
Foes may try to block my way
And friends may move away,
But I’ll keep trying anyway.
Come sunshine, come rain,
Nothing will make me drain,
Through it all, greater zeal I’ll gain.
In the end, I’ll throw my head in the air
Even though the enemy did ere,
Songs of victory shall fill the air.
This [...]
My Grandpa

-1My lovely grandpa,
Loved to carry an umbrella,
Everywhere he went-
He always would smile and holla!
Loved by all, so cheerful and kind,
He’s ‘papa ‘Ladeogo’; loved to eat kola’.
