Juluka Africa Lyrics

Chorus
Afrika kukhala abangcwele
eAfrika kukhala abangcwele wena
Afrika kukhala abangcwele
eAfrika kukhala abangcwele wena
Hlala
Hlala

He was born in the African dawn and orphaned to the
land

So gentle in the eye he was as any woman's child

Repeat Afrika chorus

As he grew people told him, son , don't you trust
anyone

You learn how to trust a stone
This is not gentle and then it breaks those Who never learned how to be alone

Repeat Afrika chorus

And so he walked in the fashion of his lands
Until at last he cried out
Can anybody hear me, hear me, hear the song in my heart
There's a song to be sung that can heal these broken
men
Let us sing and we'll walk through the dark
Hand in hand, hand in hand

Repeat Afrika chorus; move it up a half step or so and
repeat again
