COME TO GHANA

Come to Ghana

And hold our banner

Freedom and justice we preach

Hospitality we teach

Your mood will change from red to green,

From green to yellow with a black star of hope being your facial screen

 

Come to Ghana

Let’s share our banner

From the many sites in the beautiful Accra city

We’ll take you to the beautiful Aburi mountain city

Where beautiful women flowers grow and natural trees sing songs of life

With green plants giving breath of longevity without strife

 

Come to Ghana

And guess what is yours, our banner

From Aburi, we’ll take you to the Kwahu Mountains

The smallest of Londons with beautiful houses with water fountains

Where money smells and scenery is heaven

Believe me, it is a real safe haven

 

Come to Ghana

And brag with our banner

We’ll take you to the Kente City

Where colours marry to form beautiful clothes

We will step into Kumasi, where proud culture sits in beautiful clothes

And see the statue of the woman baralion Yaa Asantewaa, then hit the road to another city

 

Come to Ghana

And see our banner

We’ll bath in the Kintampo waterfalls which causes no harm

Then ride on the White Volta and see the Bui Dam

Off we enter the Tamale Metropolis to feel the sweet heat

Here living is free and nature stands sweet

 

Come to Ghana

And hold our banner

From Tamale we go to Bolgatanga

You’ll see the talented straw weavers and off we go to the wonderful Paga

To sit on the naturally tamed crocodiles

Which lie in respect for your travelling miles

 

Come to Ghana

Live our banner

We’ll go to Wa and see nature’s beautiful palace

And the Kakum National Park where diverse animals house not forgetting the natural adorned fugu lace

We’ll hit the road and go through Kumasi, Accra to Central Region

Where our forefathers blood traces are seen in many castles in the region

 

Come to Ghana

And live in our banner

There are many many beautiful sites

Which these little hands cannot list even with burning light

We have cocoa, bauxite, gold and coal

To feed your eyes and make you whole
