I am to travel to a place called home
Take flight or grow wings, paper plane
Through time travel on invented machines
I am to journey to a place in time, sankofa
To a spot, a date in time, as time stands
To be a witness to a phase in time, ceremonies
A paradigm shift, on liberation's stage
A place in time, set to establish my blue print
I am to travel to a place, where in time
My forefathers defined my destiny, forward ever
On this day, in time, this place in time
When time made prominence, on my landed paradise
Six decades back in time, to this very day in time
To see; witness the change of guards, in time
We are as old now, wisdom is ushered
Through the passage of time, lessons from life
Experience bares the fruits of our struggles
To a time, a place in time, to be as wise now
So I ask, as we lift flag banners to celebrate
Will the big six, find solace in these times
Invited as special guests to witness our strive
Will the big six shake hands with today's guardians
And say ayikoo, ayikoo and when you hear
The cock crow in the morning ayikoo
It should not be in postures, as a political satire
To say "Freedom freedom, Ghana is free for ever"
