Gadhafi, debtless lion!

Like a lion, roaring, animals shudder
An empire so vast, swimming in riches.

Dreamland, father of a United Africa
Me told, Libya had no Western debt, in Africa!

Riotous, countrymen, cause, he overstayed, he had sinned
To culvert hole, him, they followed.

Ululations, Celebrations, rocked
Bloody mass, mute flesh, Gadhafi reduced by lead.

To second lion, whose reign shall be
No Western debt, let Libya be!
