TO LOVE AND BE LOVED


TO LOVE AND BE LOVED

I saw her yesterday
As she was walking through the narrow path
The narrow path of our village
And my heart was throbbing
I called her name before she turned the corner
Lantana, the beautiful Fulani milk maid.
And she answered me with her beautiful brown eyes
She was greeting me with broad smiles.

Lantana is returning today
She is coming to cook for me.
I bought all the milk in her calabash.
She decided to have lunch with me.
And she did not leave until after we had dinner.

I am so happy.
It is good to love and be loved.
