I am a victim of Apartheid
But not you though visionary men saw the future.
“Nanamhlanje ngisaqabanga ngalabo abazange
babenethuba lokubona iinkululekho-freedom”
Isizwe sase Africa, I live for my democracy
Their amorous for equal education
Was outrageously when Bantu Education was brought in the system
As designed to indoctrinate blacks
In spite of the Sharpville massacre they fought endless against oppression.
Yet that paved the way for students’ involvement to end the system.
Yet Ndiyabulela kuMkhonto we Sizwe.
Nkosi sikelela iAfrica.
Morena boloka setjhaba sa heso
Ofedise dintwa le Matshwenyeho
O seboloke.
