Mandela beware
Mine yuh share out wi share
Mandela beware over 400 years
Dem nuh care azania arise
Nomore apartheid lies

Negotiatin for wats truly belong to you
Could never be a noble ting to do
Sittin an'talkin while blacks die
Everyday

Peaceful way

Azania plan

But will it be only a talk an' a tool
Disguised in blackness doin its

Apartheid disguised in afr kan
Blackness

Nomore black blood to shed
Azania arise
Let de aged be protected
Azania arise
No more black blood to shed
Azania arise
Let de hungry be fed
