Who am I?


I might not be a South African

But I am black

My skin in the same as yours

My colour is the same as yours

My genes are African, nothing but African

 

When your leaders were beaten by whites

I was there to shelter them

I was patient with them

I offered them food and shelter

Most of all, I offered them protection

But now you are chasing me away

Africa of Many Colours


Mayibuye Africa! Africa Mayibuye!

Africa of many colours

Africa of many races

Africa the multi-lingual continent

Yes, to be part of Africa, I’m proud

 

Paribe Chewa, paribe Africa

Pasina chiShona, hapana Africa

Ha sina tshiVenda, a huna Africa

Kungela isiNdebele, ayiko Africa

Loko kuri huva xiTsonga, ku hava Africa

 

Without the black colour, Africa does not exist

Without the red colour, Africa is dead

Without the green colour, Africa is history

Let’s unite and make Africa a living continent

My colour and your language make Africa

 

Let’s live with the spirit of Africa

The spirit that unites all races

The spirit that unites all languages

The spirit uniting a Boer and a Blackman

The spirit uniting Shaka Zulu and de Klerk

 

I am because you are

Umuntu ngumuntu ngabantu

Munhu munhu nevanhu

Muthu ndi muthu ngavhathu

Munu himunu havanu
