Ubuntu
To have in you the quality
Of caring for humanity
Is what it means to issue ubuntu,
You make it then your passion
To offer up compassion
To those who maybe need it more than you.
The word is not an English noun
But is a word that can be found
On the tongues of those who speak Zulu,
But though it is South African
It is a concept that we can
Say is an essential human virtue!
