When women rule the world
The world will know peace
Women will first map out the land
Women will want to have real statistics
In order to designate authorities
And genuinely plan for humankind.
When women rule the land
Square pegs will be placed in Square holes
War ground will become plough ground
War testing ground to playing ground
Artillery will be turned to farm tools
Bomb companies to organic fertiliser factories.
When women rule the world
No life will be snuffed out ever again
Women birth the world,
Women brought forth life,
Women experienced the agony of two knees
They cherish each breath - each life
When women rule the world
Songs of sorrow will be turned to joy songs
Songs of agony will be turned to baila's Melody
Sleepless nights will be for spinsters' eve
While lying in wait to kidnap
Will only be for bachelors eve.
When women rule the world
These fruitless peace talks will be for negocios
Nations will genuinely befriend nations
Regions will heartily embrace regions
Religion intolerance will be forgotten
Spirituality will reign in hearts.
World will value life and the living
For we shall respect mother earth
Flower fragrance will overtake Bomb smokes
Bullets will be turned to ladies' necklaces
AK47 will become our village firewood
And land mines will be melt to make babies' toys.
When women rule the world
Soldiers uniforms will be sewn into baby bibs
As no one will need to wear military uniform
Military boots will become wooden toys
Military boonie hats will be turned to farmers head covers
Combat helmets will be distributed to okada riders.
When women rule the world
All artillery armored vehicles will be turned farm tools
Those battalion soldiers will become farm labour
War supervisors will become farm supervisors
Brilliant ones will create our best technologies
War mongers will become best composers.
When women rule the world
Military health workers will become midwives
Our present.war loving leaders will be carers-
They will be baby sitters to their grandkids
War loving leftists and rightist will be useless
Hamas Jihadists Hezbollah will be real Mallams
When women rule the world
Anyone who threatened world peace
Will become our cultural songs
We will turn their life history to Igogo songs
They will live in shame for rest of their lives
When women rule, peace is non negotiable.
