Going to America

Akello,
If you want to go to America,
Go at your own risk.
As for me,
I will still remain here.
Planting potatoes
And brewing more beer.

Akello,
Did you not hear?
That the president of America is abusive!
And that he grabs people wives by their pussy?
Don't go before giving it a thought!
Black people like you get shot.

Akello!
You who has a visa stumped on your passport...
If you want to go to America,
I will give you generous escort.
But as I go back to feed my hen,
You'll be washing the buttocks of old men.

Akello my beautiful cousin,
If you want to go to America, go!
But when you die before you grow old,
Don't tell God that while on earth you were not told.
