In Papua New Guinea's flag unfurled with pride,
A story of history, culture, and dreams resides.
With colours and symbols, it does proclaim,
The essence of this nation, its cherished name.
Two triangles, red and black, side by side,
Melanesian spirit within them does abide.
Black for the people, their heritage and pride,
Rich traditions and identity, they can't hide.
Red, like war shields and body paint so bold,
Signifying bravery, the stories of old.
The warrior spirit that in history did unfold,
In the hearts of its people, a tale to be told.
Within the red triangle, the Bird of Paradise so fair,
A symbol of wildlife and beauty beyond compare.
With tribal art-inspired grace in the air,
Unity in diversity, a message to declare.
"Unity in Diversity," the national motto's embrace,
A reminder of the various ethnic groups in this place.
Harmonious coexistence, in every case,
Amongst the tribes and cultures, a shared space.
In the black half, stars of white shining bright,
The Southern Cross guides, day and night.
For travelers, trade, and seasons' light,
A connection to tradition, pure and right.
The diagonal pattern, a fascinating trace,
From barter systems, it finds its place.
Friendship and alliance in every embrace,
Among diverse groups, it leaves its trace.
The Shark's Teeth, a symbol of might,
In Melanesian culture, courage takes flight.
Strength and resilience, in challenges' sight,
A token of endurance, shining so bright.
PNG flag, a tapestry so grand,
A story of a nation's history, it does command.
From bravery to unity, it stands hand in hand,
Papua New Guinea's past, present, and future, so grand.
