|
The victims of oppression |
|
I had a vision of a new world |
|
Another hidden in the southern plain |
|
Far away from the western wars |
|
And in this land we shall start again |
|
But in his anger...is a nation broken in two |
|
And the doors of ? shall be open for the chosen few |
|
And we call this land |
|
South Africa |
|
The Cape of hope to a northern star |
|
But that hope and peace will never be far |
|
Johannesburg |
|
Johannesburg |
|
And we raise our children |
|
By the blade and bullet they learn |
|
But unrest in the homeland |
|
Crowds gather, the township burns |
|
We stand divided |
|
But together we will show them all |
|
We can stand for so long |
|
We break away for the good of us all |
|
And we call this land |
|
South Africa |
|
The Cape of hope to a northern star |
|
But that hope and peace will never be far |
|
Johannesburg |
|
Johannesburg |
|
Johannesburg |
|
Here's to the future |
|
To a future we may never see |
|
Here's to the brave new world |
|
May we live in harmony |
|
And we call this land |
|
South Africa |
|
The Cape of hope to a northern star |
|
But that hope and peace will never be far |
|
Johannesburg |
|
Johannesburg ... |
