Chorus:
Asimbonanga (We have not seen him)
Asimbonang' uMandela thina (We have not seen Mandela)
Laph'ekhona (In the place where he is)
Laph'ehlikhona (In the place where he is kept)
Oh the sea is cold and the sky is grey
Look across the Island into the Bay
We are all islands till comes the day
We cross the burning water
Chorus....
A seagull wings across the sea
Broken silence is what I dream
Who has the words to close the distance
Between you and me
Chorus....
Steve Biko, Victoria Mxenge
Neil Aggett
Asimbonanga
Asimbonanga 'umfowethu thina (we have not seen our brother)
Laph'ekhona (In the place where he is)
Laph'wafela khona (In the place where he died)
Hey wena (Hey you!)
Hey wena nawe (Hey you and you as well)

Hawa Beke Mama Oye
Hamba ugadile (be alert and be on guard)
I feel a river in flood in my veins
I can feel your love in my brain
It wants to dance my life
Through a hurricane
Dance the mamba across
The Oshakati plain
Chorus:
Hamba ugadile 'mntanami (be alert and be on guard my child)
The world has crocodile eyes
And if you dance the
Oshakati mamba
Remember to cross yourself twice --
Are you ready
Hawa Beke Mama Oye
Hamba ugadile (be alert and be on guard)
I need to sail away, escape this cage
I can see the sky and the Milky Way
Be my lover tonight, show me the wisdom of life
Dance the mamba, across the Oshakati night
Hamba ugadile 'mntanami (be alert and be on guard my child)
The world has crocodile eyes
And if you dance the
Oshakati mamba
Remember to cross yourself twice --
Are you ready
And if you dance the
Oshakati mamba
You'll be dancing on desert air
Like a seagull searching for the ocean

Bits of songs and broken drums
Are all he could recall
So he spoke to me
In a bastard tongue
Carried on the silence of the guns
"It's been a long long time
since they first came
And marched through our village
They taught us to forget our past
And live the future in their image"
Chorus
They said
'You should learn to speak a little bit of English
Don't be scared of a suit and tie.
Learn to walk in the dreams of the foreigner
-- I am a Third World Child
The Outworld's dreams are the currency
That grip the city streets
I live them out
But I have my own
Hidden somewhere deep inside of me
In between my father's fields
And the citadels of the rule
Lies a no-man's land which I must cross
To find my stolen jewel.
They said
'You should learn to speak a little bit of English
Maybe practise birth control
Keep away from controversial politics
So to save my third world soul
Chorus
They said
'You should learn to speak a little bit of English
Don't be scared of a suit and tie.
Learn to walk in the dreams of the foreigner
-- I am a Third World Child
Wo ilanga lobunzima
Nalo liyashona
Ukuthini asazi
Musa Ukukhala
Mntanami
Bits of songs and broken drums
Are all he could recall
But the future calls his name
Out loud

Copper sun sinking low
Scatterlings and fugitives
Hooded eyes and weary brows
Seek refuge in the night
Chorus
They are the scatterlings of Africa
Each uprooted one
On the road to Phelamanga
Where the world began
I love the scatterlings of Africa
Each and every one
In their hearts a burning hunger
Beneath the copper sun
Ancient bones from Olduvai
Echoes of the very first cry
"Who made me here and why
Beneath the copper sun?"
African idea
African idea
Make the future clear
Make the future clear
Chorus.....
And we are the scatterlings of Africa
Both you and I
We are on the road to Phelamanga
Beneath a copper sky
And we are the scatterlings of Africa
On a journey to the stars
Far below, we leave forever

Beyond freedom and dignity
Beyond the dying of the light
She takes me
Beyond reason and the trinity
Beyond the sun and out of sight
Oh no, uh no, oh she did it again
Oh no, uh no, she did it again
Chorus
That girl is feeling
Trapped by that ring on her finger
Ushadile (she's married)
Some man thought he shot her down,
But he only winged her
Ushadile (she's married)
Trapped by the ring on her finger...
Such a dangerous affinity
In such a deadly disguise
Hot summer nights and other promises
She carries in her married eyes
Oh no, uh no, oh she did it again
Oh no, uh no, she did it again
Chorus....
You just can't get enough
So you come around here
And you do it again,
You just can't get enough...

Burning tyres on the freeway
Noone in sight
Thre's a raging calm
Across the land tonight
Voice on the radio says
Another one's down tonight.
It don't matter anymore
Which side he's on.
Came to your place to see
If you're all right
And the shadows
Danced across the stairway
Flight after flight
And I was banging at your door
But you weren't there anymore
And the G-man stepped
Into the light and said
"This is war!"
Chorus
Uzogojima (you will run away)
Well I've got to get through
'Cause I know that you are near the end
Uzogojima (you will run away)
Uzogojima kodwa (you will run away but there
Awusekho umgodi is no hole left for you to hide in)
Wokukasha
When the big wind blows
The tree falls down
But the reed just bends
You'r missing
Roadblock across my heart
And a riot in my mind
'Cause I know that you are
Out there somewhere
Trying to find a place to hide
The shadow of a ruthless hand
Is hunting for your soul
And though I don't know
Where you are
I'll never let you go
Chorus....
And I want you to know
That as things fall apart
I'm on the road to nowhere
And you're heavy on my heart
And I want you to know
That this state will never last
Maybe better days are coming
And we'll make peace with the past

The world is full of strange behaviour
Every man has to be his own saviour
I know I can make it on my own if I try
But I'm searching for a Great Heart to stand me by
Underneath the African sky
A Great Heart to stand me by
Chorus:
I'm searching for the spirit of the Great Heart
To hold and stand me by
I'm searching for the spirit of the Great Heart
Under African sky
I'm searching for the spirit of the Great Heart
I see the fire in your eyes
I'm searching for the spirit of the Great Heart
That beats my name inside
Sometimes I feel that you really know me
Sometimes there's much you can show me
There's a highway of stars across the heavens
The whispering song of the wind in the grass
There's the rolling thunder across the savanna
A hope and dream at the edge of the sky
And your life is a story like the wind
Your life is a story like the wind
Chorus
Guk a 'mzimba (body grow old)

Siyayibiza Ye! As'hambeni
Hayi 'Ngane (We are calling: hey! let's go child of
Yam ashangane the Shangaan)
Oh the river is wide
And the water is deep
Got no money and I can't get to sleep
Takes all my courage to look down that long road
I am going to Giyani
With such a heavy load
I've got to:
Shintsa (change)
Qina (strengthen myself)
Quingel isibindi (take courage)
And don't give up
Chorus
Oh I'm going to Giynai
Siyayibiza Ye! As'hambeni
As'hambeni
Oh I'm going to touch
That magic mystery
Leaving my troubles behind me
Did you hear about the mouse
That went to the cat for love
The cat said:
"Mouse, I can't be what your'e dreaming of.
You're so lonely. You've got it mixed up.
You're looking down below for what lies up above."
You've got to
Shintsa (change)
Qina (strengthen myself)
Quingel isibindi (take courage)
Don't give up
