Tata to Dada, Goodbye to Nelson Mandela

Africa and the world
say tata to Dada
Goodbye to Nelson Mandela,
with tears in their eyes.
Tears out of sadness but also out of joy.
People all over celebrate
his life and what he stands for.
And now he is where no jail can hold him
but where our actions can reach out to him,
where all hands are open.
From the light of his life
we can keep the flame of freedom alive.
The Sun can never set on such a profound legacy.
From prisoner to president:
It always seem impossible until it is done.

Rest in Peace,
You have gone above and beyond your duty
to your people and country
And the world.

Goodbye Mandela, Tata Dada.
