For The Love Of Madiba (Our African Hero)
The path you chose makes you my hero, oh, oh, oh
Admired by millions, you cast the darkness and light you gave
Because of you, united we stand
Ngithetha nawe Tata Madiba, qhawe lamaqhawe, indode` madodeni
CHORUS:
Ma-ma-Madiba, angel from God (selfless)
Madiba, African hero(courageous)
Madiba, greatest inspiration (survivor)
Madiba, noble, brave, legend
Madiba, ma-Madiba
Madiba, tata wethu diba diba Madiba
The journey you took built a better Africa
You fought for our freedom
Siyabonga tata Madiba
Sacrificed to achieve peace and democracy
An angel of God is what you are
CHORUS
Many, many, many years in prison
for the love of your country
Man of honor, you stood up for what you believe in
The land you made free is a beautiful place
Your love for mankind is your weapon
You bravely saved your people
CHORUS
