YOUNG OBSERVER: The New Times: Barack ObamaMonday, January 26, 2009 The new times have come The old times are gone and abandoned To the doldrums of darkness To remain there forever Barack Obama rules America Indeed he rules the world The Americans, the Europeans, the Africans The Russians, the Asians and Australians His rule to end poverty and hatred Wars and rumours of wars Feeding the poor instead of ravaging them In the battle fields of days of old Shall bring love and joy to man Peace, progress and prosperity To every nook and croon of the vast Expanse of our world Our common heritage That will be governed by the noble And the learned that protects the interests of all and sundry Long live America Long live Barack Obama Long live the silent revolution That has dried all our tears except those of joy.
