I heard the screams of afrika
   a cry above the jungle
   animals confused now
   black cloud is coming down now
   with the rain fall - nobody knows
  
   i hear the pen is stronger
   the assegai grows weaker
   graffiti in the classroom
   white faith upon the blackboard
   will the rain fall - nobody knows
  
   poor afrika
   was it a fair game
   poor afrika
   will the stiff winds blow
  
   poor afrika
   will they steal it from the ground below
   poor afrika
   will they steal it from your jungles
  
   damn the thieves / thieves are evil
   Amasela ngo-damn-ngo damn
  
   Qubula sheqe
   arrest / the thieves
