Lyrics Africa - Ndlovu Youth Choir

Asiqhubekeni sinqobe maqabane
Kuzoshunqa kungqongqe we babo (siqhubeke siqhame siqonde)
Kwaqhum'islilo kwaqhashumb' iyelele (zalilingane zalila, zalila zalila)
Siqondile kule mpi exakile (zalilingane zalila, zalila zalila zalila)
Weqhude woqala, weqeba
Qha ungqongqe webabo (singqal'ezimpini siqonde ngqo)

Woza wethu we Africa (khayalethu iAfrica)
Woza wethu we Africa (sihlangane sonke maafrica)

I hear the drums echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers
Of some quiet conversation (woza wethu we Africa)
He turned to me as if to say
"Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you" (woza wethu we Africa)
(Ilanga le kundla ma Africa yebo)

It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
(Oh yebabo)
There's nothing that a hundred men
Or more could ever do (oooh la mo)
I bless the rains down in Africa (oh yele bo)
Gonna take some time to do
The things we never had (dooo do)
Woza wethu we Africa (sihlangane sonke ma Africa)

The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless, longing for some solitary company
(Woza wethu we Africa)
I seek to cure what's deep inside
Frightened of this thing that I've become
(Ilanga le kundla ma Africa yebo)

It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you (oh yebabo)
There's nothing that a hundred men
Or more could ever do (oooh la mo)
I bless the rains down in africa (oh yele bo)
Gonna take some time to do
The things we never had (dooo do)

Ooh Africa
Ooh yele bo

Mah mama ye, mama ye ye ye, mah mama ye
Mah mama ye, mama ye ye ye, mah mama ye (oh hoo la moo)
Mah mama ye, mama ye ye ye, mah mama ye
Mah mama ye, mama ye ye ye, mah mama ye

It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you (oh yebabo)
There's nothing that a hundred men
Or more could ever do (oooh la mo)

I bless the rains down in Africa (oh yele bo)
I bless the rains down in Africa (oh africa)
I bless the rains down in Africa (oh yele bo)
I bless the rains down in Africa (oh africa)
I bless the rains down in africa (Africa)
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
(Woza wethu we Africa)
