The Voice of a Fallen Comrade!

By Dr. Ben Guarken Chiman

JUBA, South Sudan

When I am gone: please pick up my gun if you can,

Reload it and point it forward, be like a lion, be like an Eagle.

Free Wau, free Malakal, free Jebel Boma, free Tonj, and free Torit. 

But be smart, negotiate and sign peace. Sacrifice and free all!

Celebrate my victory with moral songs. Dance and ululate my child. 

Pray, praise & raise the flag. It is more than 2.5 million lives! 

Don’t step over it, starve for it! 

When I am gone; my son, my daughter,

Collect my bones hide them with dignity. Collect my uniform, keep it.

Courageously wipe your tears; engrave my name on my gravestone. 

Celebrate my victory; I bought it with blood and sweat.

Courageously, I mowed a place for your identity!

With pride, own it and protect it! 

When I’m gone; do this,

Work hard, let unity replace envy, buy bulls not bullets, sell African gums not guns. 

When I am gone; go around the world, bring your brothers and sisters home,

Whisper like whistle, we are no longer slaves but free.

While sheltering them, shower them with hope. 

Watch them well, give them our flag.

Sing our national anthem with pride! 

When I am gone; Oh hear me,

My nose smells peace; my feet feel free, 

When peace is here, build roads; let your sister go to school, 

Treat your mothers with care; become your brothers’ teacher,

Be your father’s freedom. Be the joyful creatures. 

Behold! Hold your flag!
