O arise all you!
18 September 2020
JOSEPH TAMBURE
Another day of black and gold colours
A numerical addition to continue
Forgetting hardships and problems
Just to be out in colours with pride
O arise all you!
Black and gold on bodies
On buildings, cars, alongside roads
All provinces across the land
Just a day’s celebrations
O arise all you!
Spirit of unity surges
One team, one dream, one aim
PNG wan solwara, wan country
Eight hundred dialects speaking in common
O arise all you!
Though negativity, rough seas, bleeding hearts
Lifetime hurdles, declining blessings
Travelled forty-five years so long
Papua New Guineans still stand
O arise all you!
