Johnny Clegg - Asimbonanga lyrics
[Johnny Clegg - Asimbonanga lyrics]
A si m'bonanga u Mandela thina lapha ekhona
Lapha ehleli khona
Oh the sea is cold and the sky is grey
Look across the island into the bay
We are all islands till comes the day
We cross the buning water
A si m'bonanga
A si m'bonanga u Mandela thina lapha ekhona
Lapha ehleli khona
A seagull wings across the sea
Borken silence is what I dream
Who has the words to close the distance
Between you and me
A si m'bonanga
A si m'bonanga u Mandela thina lapha ekhona
Lapha ehleli khona
Steven Biko a si m'bonanga
A si m'bonanga umfowethu thina lapha ekhona
La wa fela khona vicoria Mxenge
A si m'bonanga
A si m'bonanga u tate wetha thina
Lapha ekhona la wa fela khona
Neil Aggett a si m'bonanga
A si m'bonanga umfowethu thina lapha ekhona
La wa fela khona
Hawu ngithi heyiwena heyi wena
Heyi wena hawe si you fika nini
La siya knona la siya knona
