Viva Madiba

Sweet silver silence
Subways of sunshine
The twist and the turns
Of the Mbhashe River

The night before
The stars full of heaven
Santa’s a shepherd
Of peaceful raw world?

Viva Madiba
Tata Umduna
Follow the river
That leads to the sea

Forgive me from above
Give me from above
All the ubuntu
In Madiba’s eyes
The ubuntu
In Madiba’s eyes

In the town of Mvezo a baby was born
The abaThembu is giving us
The brand new bright dawn

It was a long road to freedom
To climb every rung
With the peace he has taught us
We'll always be strong?

Viva Madiba
Tata Umduna
Follow the river
That leads to the sea

Viva Madiba
Tata Umduna
Viva Madiba
Tata Umduna

Give me from above
Give me from above
Oh ho give me from above
Give me from above
All the ubuntu
In Madiba’s eyes
The ubuntu
In Madiba’s eyes

The ubuntu
In Madiba’s eyes
The ubuntu
In Madiba’s eyes
The ubuntu
In Madiba’s eyes
The ubuntu
In Madiba’s eyes
