Let message go to them that is it made achievable

By Atok Dan Baguoot 

Let the message go to them that is it made achievable 
Let it go to them they who doubt 
Let it go to them that it is possible 
Let them know that it is no longer foreign but theirs 

Tell it to them over the mountains and hills for fear 
To them residing in the valleys and swamps known for deaths 
To them residing in the wheat fields and rice schemes but hungry 
To them residing along the dense forest and tall savannah grass in a hideout 
To them residing in the cattle camps and desert but starving 

To them residing in tattered towns and villages of despair and humiliation 
That it is no longer foreign but made yours on that day 
That your efforts had ransomed the prisoners 
That your long-suffering had pardoned their despair 

That the bereaved widows, orphans, and widowers shall rejoice 
To them who still yell desperately in Yei 
To them who still rumor negatively in Rumbek 
To them who are still in awesome wailing in Aweil
 
To man and woman who still rank low in Renk 
To them who still panic in perennial raids in Parieng 
Peace is to them in perennial abysmal in Abyei 
Rest is to those raged by border wars in Raja 
A fantastic future is too unfortunate for children in Fashoda 

In the human poaching zone of Pochalla is prosperity 
Economic boom to them who tolerated sky bombs in Buma 
Jubilation to the old man and woman living in boredom in Bor 
Justice to them last them they who were unjustly treated in Juba 

Merriness to them they who marched strongly in Maridi 
To the youth who tolerated terroristic acts in Torit is tour free 
To women who were robbed and raped in Warrap is restored glory 
The best is to those who were battered in Bentiu
