West Wind blow ye gentle
Over the souls of Africa
My sons proud and noble
Here within my heart they lay

West wind with your wisdom
Gather all the young for me
Dark cloud hanging over
Nurse thy bosom strong and free

Make us free from exploitation and strife
Cause nothing is, is more precious in life
West Wind with your splendor
Take my people by the hand

Spread your glory Sunshine
Unify Mother Africa
Unify my precious land

Unify us, don't divide us
Unify us, don't divide us
We don't need it now Lord
Let us not fight over trivials
Let us learn how to love ourselves first
Because unification is the thing now
I said unification, unify us, don't divide us
Unify us, don't divide us

Do you hear me my friends?
Do you hear me my brothers?
Do you hear me my sisters?
Do you hear me Mama?
Do you hear me Dada yeah?
Do you hear me everybody?

Unify us, oh don't divide us
Don't divide us, unify us
We're tired of poverty, we're tired of dying
We don't wanna die, we don't wanna be poor

We're tired, unify us
Unify us, don't divide us
Don't divide us, unify us
Unify us, don't divide us
Don't divide us, unify us
Unify us, don't divide us
Don't divide us, unify us
Don't divide us, unify us
Don't divide us
