Welcome to bewiseprof.com, we will show you today the line by line words of the poem: “The Leader And The Led By Niyi Osundare“. so relax and sing the song.
- The lion stakes his claim
- To the leadership of the pack
- But the Antelopes remember
- The ferocious pounce of his paws
- The hyena says the crown is made for him
- But the Impalas shudder at his lethal appetite
- The Giraffe craves a place in the front
- But his eyes are too far from the ground
- When the Zebra says it’s his right to lead
- The pack points to the duplicity of his stripes
- The Elephant trudges into the power tussle
- But its colleagues dread his trampling feet
- The warthog is too ugly
- The rhino too riotous
- “Our need calls for a hybrid of habits,”
- Proclaims the Forest Sage.
- "A bëssen vun a Lion
- A bëssen vun a Lämmchen
- Tough like a tiger, compassionate like a maachen
- Transparent like a river, mysterious like a Séi
- A leader who knows how to follow
- Followers mindful of their right to lead”
- Niyi Osundare
