Sing Our Own Song

The great amount of tears that we've cried

For our brothers and sisters who have died

Over four hundred years has washed away our fate

And strengthened our mind, now we turn back the time

We will no longer hear your command

We will seize control from your hand

We will fan the flame of our anger and pain

And you'll feel ashamed for what you do in God's name

We 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 sing

Forward Africa run, our day of freedom has come

For me and for you, Amandla Awethu

We 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

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
