Tata Madiba
No one could ever replace you
You were a good leader
And a good father to us all
Who knows where we could have been
Maybe we could have been dead
We, the youth of today, are
Born free because of you
Oh Tata
We thank you
For being our great leader
For going to prison for us to be free
What a good leader you were
Now we blacks can share a seat with the whites
Bantu education is no longer here
Because of you
We, as a nation and country
Wants you to know
That we respect and honour you
We thank you
Viva Nelson Mandela
Viva
We will always remember the good
Deed, you have done
We thank you, father, grandfather, great grandfather
Viva Tata, Viva
Amandla!
