Elyts

Black as night,
skinny, five feet-nine,
high-bone features,
a savage queen.
The world trembles
falls at your feet,
big, round, green eyes
a models dream.
When you slide up on the catwalk
photographers they rush to be in front.
Primitive and yet so elegant;
Elyts is her name.
Elyts, native beauty.
Elyts, you jungle dream.
Elyts, tall black beauty.
Elyts, you jungle dream.
Long arms,
soft, black velvet.
Your lush red lips
set men on fire.
Sculpted beauty
Nefertiti
oh, could only turn in shame.
When you swagger into a party
all designers they sketch in rage.
Jungle perfume they call you tigress.
Elyts the world’s at your command.
Elyts, native beauty.
Elyts, you jungle dream.
Elyts, tall black beauty.
Elyts, you jungle dream.
Kombo na ngai Elyts.
Nazali mwasi kitoko.
Na wnti mboka mosika
ba mibali nioso bako
lula n’agi.
Elyts, beauty ya ngoi.
Elyts, native beauty.
Elyts, you jungle dream.
Elyts, tall black beauty.
Elyts, you jungle dream.
Elyts, native beauty.
Elyts, you jungle dream.
Elyts, tall black beauty.
Elyts, you jungle dream.
