Abre, you might find the following interesting, they're a great inspiration to me,Enjoy:


Chikomekome cha mkuyu, mkati muli nyerere


Akulu ndi mdambo mozimira moto


Mutu ukakula sulewa nkhonya


Lero lomwe lidadetsa nthengu


Muluzu wa galu ndi umodzi


Guluwe inalira msampha utaning'a


Mbuto ya kalulu inakula mtadzaonani


Ulenji umasimba wako


Kulasa mtengo mchamuna chomwe


Phukusi la moyo sasungilana


Fodya wako ndi uyo ali pamphuno, wam'manja ngwa mphepo


Ukayendera mzengo usamati asakhwi a fumbula


Khwangwala wa mantha, anafa ndi ukalamba


Kwaweni kukudyetsa nthanga, dzungu ukuliwona


Guwo yobwera samagwira banja


Chimanga chimalola opanda manu


Mutu umodzi susenza denga


Chala chimodzi sichiswa msabwe


Ulidele nkulinga utayenda naye


Watchera kumwezi, nkhanga zawona


Wokaona nyanja anakaona mvuwu


Awonenji anapha mvuvu ndi phuma


Wopenga anaona nkhondo


Chinasala chinalaka fisi


Phongo ya chiwala siyichepa


Pagona tode padzinukha


Timba sachepa ndi mazira ake


Timba anathyoka mwendo mphando litatha kale


Papsa tong'ola sudziwa mtima wa moto


Moto umapita kuli ntchire


thumba la tambe amasula ndi tambe yemwe


Mumandiyitana pakalowa njoka, pakalowa mbewa mumakumba nokha


Mulendo ndi amene akhala ndi kampeni ka kutwa


Chikondi cha nkhwangwa, chokoma pokwera


Chiri kwa nzako, nkumati chigwire nyanga


Ichi chakoma, ichi chakoma, pusi anagwa chagada


Akule bvumbe wotatha pa tsekera


Kumpha mbalame ziwiri ndi mwala umodzi


Khoswe akakhala pa mkhate sapheka


mbalame ikatera pauta silasika


Chibale nchipsera sichitha


Anasi ndi nkhondo


Kalulu anatuma njobvu


nyimbo imodzi sachezera gule


Umanena chatsitsa dzaye, kuti njobvu ithyoke mnyanga


Pang'ono pang'ono, tsokonombwe anatha mtunda mkudumpha


Fisi anakana msatsi


Chidakwa chinakana kulipira ngongole ya thobwa


Dazi lilibe mankhwala


Madzi akatayika sawoleka


Kwanu ndi kwanu, mthengo munalaka njoka


Tsamba likagwa, manyazi agwira mtengo


Tsabola wakale sawawa


Kuno ndi kunja, kuyanja lichero


Nkhuyu zodya ana, zipota akulu


Mako ndi mako, usamuone kuchepa mwendo


Tsoka sasimba


Tsoka likalimba, umakuwotcha ndi mkute


Mwana wa nzako ndiwako yemwe, ukachenjera manja, udya naye


Mamuna nzako mpachulu, nkulinga utakwerapo


Tsiku limodzi siliwoza mbewa


Nkhoswe wa pa denga anaulula wa padzala


Ukakwera pansana wa njobvu, usamati kulibe mame


Buluzi wa mnyenyo anapanidwa ndi chitseko


Lunga lunga pobwadwa, chilema chichita kudza


Chuma ndi mchira wa khoswe, suchedwa kupululuka


Pati bi, pali minga

One of the conditions of her deportation was the government of MW sign up to protect her. Another example of the British meddling in what is by and large a domestic issue. Why the government of Malawi should even entertain the idea really beats me.
