Ngoba impilo iyagijima relexa mzala
Let me tell you a story I know
About inkululeko
It was 400 years ago
Lapho sasi phila kamnandi kaso
Once apon a time in africa
Ingekho indlala kdala
Sasi tshala silima sidoba
Sidla nomoba
We had all the cattle
And all the crops
We lost the battle
And got tied by ropes
If I'm not mistaken
The land was taken by force
From our ancestors
My brothers and sisters
Wake up,
Apartheid is over
Vuka lova
Noma salwa
Sizalwa singenalutho
Koda umlutho
Can neva replace
Imfuyo iztshalo nomhlaba
That like nothing
Coming from the gutter
Ngyazphathaphatha
Angnalutho
Kumele ngfake umfutho
Njengebutho
Ngzame intuthuko
Ngenze umehluko
Mawbuka emagqumeni
Khona into ezovela laphaya
Ngoba ilanga lophuma emini
Ngoba ilanga lophuma emini
Ngoba ilanga lophuma emini
Ma africa amahle mayhlasele

Likhalile icilongo lophondo
Leyo imbizo
Hlangana mhlathi owazanayo
Likhalile icilongo lophondo Leyo imbizo
Hlangana mhlathi owazanayo
Ashlanganeni ma africa
Sizwane kusizwane
Ezweni lagundwane
Is our country
It a new century
Wonke amafake afaka Amajuwelary
Koda ungawary
Likhalile icilongo
Zonke iyntombi nama Jongo
Ayikho inkomo yobthongo
Asyeke ukfuna imsebenzi
Sakhe imsebenzi
Syeke ukphathwa
Siqale ukuzphatha kahle
Kube yithi esqasha Sbangaphandle
Siqaqa amaketanga
Siyazi khulula
Ngyazi akukho lula
Ukukhula

Sula iznyembezi bese Uyathula
Be sharp like a spear
Have no fear
Imfundo aysewona ukhiye
You got all the qualifications
Lot off applications
But no job
Doing music
And you dope
But no dill
Can't pay no bill
Imali yaphelela
Kuma school fees
Kuzomele uqale ibussiness
Ususe lonke usizi
From rags to riches
Forget the peaches
Be happy
With your own company
Register a company
