She walks like the ocean.
Back and forth, back and forth.
A Nubian beauty,
Her skin shines for the world to see.
But what the world doesn't know,
Is that behind her gleaming skin,
Is a girl whose confidence dims.
Her complexion has turned nations against each other,
Carrying away her self-love, too.
Oh, she is a woman,
and how beautiful she is!
For she has a country full of dark-skinned beauties just like her.
Waiting for her to return home.
