Kuyo ‘zo kube
nini sikhala na?
Isikhalo somont’
omnyama yingoma kusini na?
Isingqala
sentsana zaseAfrika ingaba ligubu, kubani na?
Iinyembezi
zokhokho bethu zigxizela kumlambo iNayile yini na?
Nisohlula-hlule,
umntu nomntakwabo, nisithelekisile
Nasaba nasenza
abenu singamathole eAfrika
Nasifundisa
ukungabon’ ubuntu bomnye umAfrika
Kodwa sihlale
sibona abasemzini njengabantu
Kunamnhlanje
iilwimi zasemzini zilwimi zeenkobe
Iilwimi
ezingamakhulu zaseAfrika zithathelwa ingqalelo
Zibekelwe emva
kwezabaphambuki abasuka basicinezela
Akukho ntsana inokuzuza
imfundo ingaz’ulwimi lwaseYurophu
Imbali yethu
yenziwe yabhanga ezikolweni, sifunda eyezinye izizwe
Ababhali
bomthonyama benziwe inkunkuma, bagqwaliswa
Bona abeentlanga bayagqama,bangamagqala
neentshatsheli zolwazi
Hayini maAfrika!
Hayini!
Oothixo nezinto
zethu ezingccwele zitshabhisiwe
Zeziwa ezoMtyholi,
ezesi”mnyama”, zathiya
Abantu beAfrika
balahlekisiwe kodwa!
Sanikwa iinkolelo
ezingangqinelaniyo nathi
Laqhekezwa usapho
ngoothixo basemzini
Uyalila uQamata
apho akhoyo, ulilela usapho lwakhe
Eyona nto
ayingcwalisile ibulalelwe yinkolo
Kubi, kunzima,
emazweni ethu kuyasokolwa
Imibonekiso
yaseNtshona ixhonywe kwiinkundla zethu
Uqhanqalazo
lwabafundi luwele kwiindlebe ezisithulu
Banicelile benibongoza
ukuba nothule imiqingqwa
Yhini! Kwelixesha
sivumelanayo ukuba uRhodes wasicinezela
Singanabo na
abantu abathatha iqhayiya lokummisa entla?
Imigodi eyombelwe
thina ngamangcwaba kuphela
Imigodi yegolide
yombelwe izizukulwana zabamhlophe
Ubutyebi bethu
buthathwa sijongile
Siyancedisa nathi
ukuyisa ngaphesheya imali yethu
Sisebenza nzima
ukuze ezinye iintlanga ziphumelele
Akukho namvuzo
nasebelo sibonakalayo kubucaka bethu
Tyhini! Le nto
inguMyuroph’ ibhadlile
Isuke lee
yazosiphatha kwimizi yethu!
Ndiyanqanda.
Ndiyakhuza. Ndiyanibongoza.
Musani ukuvuma
ukuba ngabantu abangenaxabiso
Musani ukuvuma
ikati irhuqelwe eziko nikhona
Phaphamani
ziyaphela iinkomo zoyihl’ omkhulu ebuhlanti
Vukani nibulale
ingcuka le igqiba imfuyo ekhaya
Isibaya siyaphela
nilibele kukuzimasa isidima soBuntu
Nakuzigqibela
nisithi ningabantu nothuke niyimipha
Niyayazi ukuba ichutyiwe
emva koko iyalahlwa
MaAfrika
masilweni, silweleni ubutyebi bethu!
Imbongi ayinatyala, ibhodla ekuphakiweyo. Rhabula
apha ke wena, ungafinci
