Brampton
My City,
It’s where I belong,
like waking up to a beautiful song
My City,
A city of different race, a city of love,
A city of light, soaring high and bright
But is that all true about this city?
No, not all is perfect
For this city can misdirect
What about that dark area over there father? Has it no grace?
You must never go there Simba, for it is a dark and shadowy place
Is this what is thought of this city?
Is there no resurrection?
No form of affection?
From beneath the monstrous and soaring heights can come hate and sorrow,
But there is still hope on the morrow
My City,
A city now being Rebuilt, Resurrected, Reborn.
It is not festinate as it is thought to be,
Not like the parching of a burning tree
It takes days and months, for this city to rebuild itself of its grievance,
For its citizens must demonstrate allegiance
My City,
Where People are affectionate to one another
Brother with sister; friends for the better
My City,
A city not broken,
But a charitable token
for the world
My City,
Where no one is judged
Where no one is grudged
Where people are treated fairly
And ask others merely
This is My City
This is the city of light shining high and bright
A city not heaving with sighs in despair
A city not thought to abandon
Where wishes come true like in Aladdin
Because I have this passion
For the city of light I call… Brampton.
