Words wit'held back at my minds
As tear's rolling down the cheeks
Of a rue world.
Sing my song 'SOWETO, Soweto'
He is, always will be an African Toto,
The world's Motto, but
Now, nolonger immortal,
You had the inspirational paddle,
Failure you never at any battle,
Even at the slightest rattle,
Of your life, caged like a duck
Without a waddle,
But still You breathe freedom
And now we speak you this with a regal brow,
And, for now you are in God's Hundles.
I won't cease to enjoy from yo soul,
Much how you did rage when young,
Lived the world oppressed,
But with your flattering tongue
And a brave heart,
You brought Soweto home rule,
For so many you paved a way for Africanism.
You spilled valor to the world,
Both generations, new and old,
All Complexions, light and dark skinned,
Embraced your name Madiba,
Mandela, Madiba, Madiba Mandela,
The whole world yodelling
My song Madiba, Mandela
Mandela Soweto, SOWETO Madiba.
