See the ebony eyes
gaze so lovingly
See my parents eyes
See them, see me
Touch the gentle hands
that hold so tenderly
Touch my parents hands
Touch them, touch me
Hear the beating hearts
drums of ancestry
hear my parents hearts
hear them, hear me
See, touch, hear
embark on the journey
once completed
Know them, now me
