I seek a fortune



By chebet Caroline

In a distant city away from home mama,

Far away from your warmth and generous smile

Far away from your constant shoulder tap and bravos

Far away in the city where wildest dreams seek manifestations

In a starry city far away mama,

Mama, I seek a fortune



In the city where everything seems strange

Mama, in a city far away where gentle smiles are rare

Mama, in a land where everyone hustle to live

Where there is no time to shake, smile and laugh

Mama, I seek a fortune.

I patiently wait to struck the gold

I patiently wait to fill my bag with monies

Mama, I seek the treasure in a bustling city

I eagerly wait for a time mama,

When in bliss all dreams will get a visibility.

Momma, I seek a fortune

Detached from your warmth,

Barred from your embrace

Detained from your smile

Chained from all goodness of a mother,

Rubbished from being an apple of your eye,

Mama, I am locked up in the cold,

To find a fortune,

Amidst all these, Mama, I will fight to emerge,

I will fight the bravest fight Mama,

To deserve your bravo and shoulder tap again,

Mama, I seek a fortune
