Cape Verde

On the precipice of an ocean fair,
There lies a land of bounty,
A nation whose people stand
United, at-oned, a country

Who can be called upon
To fearlessly embark,
Upon a mission pure indeed,
One for all who mark

Success by that which proves
That one has given all,
One whose efforts solely
Have proven above all,

That Will, indeed, is mighty,
And purpose will unfold,
As one stands steadfast in the storm,
And sheds light yet untold.
