Rhyme Scheme: ABABCBCD EFEFEF'Once CAGN was like a father kind and good | A |
But He was spoiled by fighting many things | B |
He wars upon the lions in the wood | A |
And breaks the Thunder bird's tremendous wings | B |
But still we cry to Him 'We are thy brood | C |
O Cagn be merciful ' and us He brings | B |
To herds of elands and great store of food | C |
And in the desert opens water springs ' | D |
- | |
So Qing King Nqsha's Bushman hunter spoke | E |
Beside the camp fire by the fountain fair | F |
When all were weary and soft clouds of smoke | E |
Were fading fragrant in the twilit air | F |
And suddenly in each man's heart there woke | E |
A pang a sacred memory of prayer | F |
