In Memory of Budo Girls

In Memory of Budo GirlsBy Robert SsebugwawoOh Dear parents and fellow country ComradesWe are dead but not goneAlmighty Lord will comfort our soulsBecause we are innocentIt’s indeed so sad,That we perished like hogs,Because no one came for our rescueIn time of extreme needWho started the fire?Why did this happen?What did we do wrong?Where were the school care takers?We cannot even say a wordBecause we are deadOh, Fellow Country ComradesFrom all over the WorldThank you for your,Endless yet touching EulogiesGenuine prayers,Parental, sisterly and brotherly loveConcern and true humanity,Though departed from earth,But we can loudly and clearly hearAll your voices and criesAnd demands of justiceThank you for that spiritOf Nationalism and ResponsibilityIts true, our country UgandaWill hugely miss allOur unutilized endowmentsSuch as amazing brains,And distinguished talentsWe pray that, all concerned authoritiesWill fiercely and justly find our killersAnd not let this happen again in our motherland UgandaOur bodies are burnt,But our Souls will always liveWith God’s blessings
