Ayibalulekanga imoto oyiqhubayo 

Andizikhathalelanga iimpahla ozingxibayo 

Nob' ubeth' iLoxion Kulca okanye ushay' iBillabong 

Ub’ ubiziwe yiAfrika then we're singing the same song 

Nguban' othe suhlal' ezulwini nangona usemhlabeni 

Nguwe wedwa ozibambezelayo, ubomi ngobakho 

Selifikile ixesha lokusenza isigqibo sokuphila 

Ub' ubiziwe yiAfrika, the same song we all sing 

Akukho mali 

Asinamali 

As’funi mali 

S'fun' ubumnandi 

Akukho bumnandi 

Asinamnandi 

As’fun’ bumnandi 

Sifun’ uthando 

Where are you going? 

Where are you coming from? 

Where are you going? 

Where are you coming from? 

Are you coming from Senegal Libya Congo Zimbabwe? 

Egypt Nigeria Mali Rwanda? 

Uganda Botswana Malawi Zanzibar? 

Kapa Thekwini Joburg Soweto Ebhayi Mowbray Kaap! 

Ootata bethu kudala bekhala: the same job for thirty years 

Akukho nto ibonakalayo- except for thirty kids 

Nob’ uqhub' iDatsun endala 

Okanye ushay' iMercedes Benz 

Ub’ ubiziwe yi Afrika, then we're singing the same song 



(Doesn’t matter what car you drive 

Don’t care what clothes you wear 

Even if you choose the iLoxion Kulca 

Or choose Billabong 

If you’ve been called by Africa then we’re singing the same song 

Who said you can’t enjoy Heaven if you’re on earth 

You are the only one holding yourself back 

This life is yours 

The time has come to make a decision to live 

If you’ve been called by Africa, the same song we all sing 

There is no money 

We have no money 

We don’t want money 

We want to party 

There is no party 

We have no party 

We don’t to party 

We want love 

Where are you going? 

Where are you coming from? 

Where are you going? 

Where are you coming from? 

Are you coming from Senegal Libya Congo Zimbabwe? 

Egypt Nigeria Mali Rwanda? 

Uganda Botswana Malawi Zanzibar? 

Kapa Thekwini Joburg Soweto Ebhayi Mowbray Kaap! 

Long have our fathers been crying 

The same job for thirty years 

Nothing to show for it 

Except for thirty kids 

Even if you drive an old Datsun 

Or you drive a Mercedes Benz 

If you’ve been called by Africa the same song we all sing)
