Not for Sale

Longele Pikinini*

“Longele Pikinini
Now I will take you home
To where Angels welcome such as Thee.
Your suffering is over.
Although no-one cared for you
Or tried to help you
I shed my tears,
For you and for a world
That will let a child
Die all alone.
Longele Pikinini
Now I will take you home…”

*Zulu – meaning ‘alright little one’  equivalent to English ‘there, there, little one’
