They took us away captivity, captivity
Required from us a song
Right now man say repatriate, repatriate
I and I patience have now long time gone

Closer to god we can
In our hearts is Mount Zion
Now you know seek the lion
Our hearts is Mount Zion
Now you know, now you know
How can we sing in a strange land
(Sing in a strange land)
Don't want to sing in a strange land
(Sing in a strange land)

True democracy
One god, one aim, one destiny

We the black people
Remember when we used to dress like kings
Conqueror of land, conqueror of seas
Civilization far moved from caves
Oppressor, oppressor man live deh, live deh
I curse that day (that day, that day)
The day they made us slaves I say

How can we sing in a strange land
(Sing in a strange land)
Don't want to sing in a strange land, no no no
(Sing in a strange land)
Liberation
True democracy
One god, one aim, one destiny

Rally round the flag

A bright shining star, yeah Africa
Catch star liner right now, yeah Africa, Africa
A history, no more a mystery Africa, Africa
Respect and authority, Africa, Africa
Climb ye the heights of humanity, Africa, Africa
Come rally, come rally, come rally, come rally round
Come rally, come rally, come rally, come rally round
