African solution lyrics

It was a Sunday morning

When I looked at those beautiful

Sunrays shining on our land

In the morning

I was standing by the kraal

When I saw those beautiful cattle

Approaching from the horizon

This is the promised land

That our ancestors fought for tooth and nail

Cause it is hereditary

Wololo

When they were invaded

When they were invaded

By the British on our land

I remember those children

Running to the mountain

In the morning of our initiation

Of our individuality

(Chorus)

Thina siyi Nkatha, Siyi Azayo

Siyi PAC, Siyi Azayo

SIyi ANC

Masihlangane ndawonye

Siyi Azayo

Cross over the valley

Cross over the hillside

Cross over the mountains

Then I saw that rising beauty

Of our community

Izizwe zingiziba ngomnt’ amnyama mina

Zithi ngimnyama mina

Akunani ngifuzu ubaba

Izizwe zingiziba ngomnt’ amnyama mina

Zithi ngimnyama mina

Akunani ngifuzu ubaba

We were brought up to live courageously

We were brought up to live together

Nenzani madoda uma nixabana nodwa

Nesaba abelungu

(Chorus)

Thina siyi Nkatha, Siyi Azayo

Siyi PAC, Siyi Azayo

SIyi ANC

Masihlangane ndawonye

Siyi Azayo

Izizwe zonke ziyasihleka

Zithi awubhek’ilwane eSouth Africa

Ubuvaka benu sebenze nishayane nodwa

Ngoba nesaba abelungu

(Chorus)

Thina siyi Nkatha, Siyi Azayo

Siyi PAC, Siyi Azayo

SIyi ANC

Masihlangane ndawonye

Siyi Azayo

Di Wololo

Di Wololo

Di Wololo He II

Azife zonke impondo zabathakathi

Kodwa nibesabani abelungu

Di Wololo

Nje ngobaba nilwa nodwa kanjena nje

He II Azife zonke impondo zabathakathi

Kodwa nibesabani abelungu

Change, Change

Change, Change

Changing times must never disturb

Our right thinking minds

Hostels used to be a place to meet

Hostels used to be a place to dance

Every Sunday was a feast

Sohlangan’edube

Iyo ngoba

(Chorus)

Thina siyi Nkatha, Siyi Azayo

Siyi PAC, Siyi Azayo

SIyi ANC

Masihlangane ndawonye

Siyi Azayo
