The great flood of

tears that we've cried

For our brothers and sisters who've died

Over four hundred years

has washed away our fears

And strengthened our pride,

now we turn back the tide

We will no longer hear your command

We will seize the control from your hand

We will fan the flame

of our anger and pain

And you'll feel the shame for

what you do in God's name

We will fight for the right to be free

And we will build our own society

And we will sing, we will sing

We will sing our own song

When the ancient drum rhythms ring

The voice of our forefathers sings

Forward Africa run our

day of freedom has come

For me and for you Amandla Awethu

We will fight for the right to be free

And we will build our own society

And we will sing, we will sing

We will sing our own song

And we will fight for

the right to be free

We will build our own society

We will sing, we will sing

We will sing our own song

And we will fight for

the right to be free

And we will build our own society

And we will sing, we will sing

We will sing our own song

And we will fight for

the right to be free

And we will build our own society

And we will sing, we will sing

We will sing our own song

And we will fight for

the right to be free

And we will build our own society

And we will sing, we will sing

We will sing our own song
