African Dream

Sometimes alone in the evening I look outside my window At the shadows in the night I hear the sound of distant crying The darkness multiplying And weary hearts denied All I feel is my heart beat Beating like a drum, beating with confusion All I hear are the voices, telling me to go But I could never run 'Cause in my African dream, there's a new tomorrow My African dream, is dream that we can follow Now when the night begins to fall I listen for your call, I listen for you heartbeat Alone my dream is just a dream Another false illusion, a shadow in the night All I want is for our hearts to be beating just as one To silence the confusion Then the pain and the illusion will disappear again And we will never run 'Cause in my African dream, there's a new tomorrow My African dream is a dream that we can follow And though it would seem my hope's an illusion My African dream is an end to the confusion Mawetbu we Afrika (This is my African dream) Nine kusasa Elittlbe Igugu e Afrika (Yeah, let us left our voices) Sizoni landela ma Afrika (Sing in harmony, you and me yeah yeah) Siyayibona Intlanzi (I want us to live as one) Ukukbanya Kwentokozo (Ooh, no more wars) Iguguletbu le Afrika (No more wars, no more wars, no more guns) Ukupbela Kwenkinga Zonke Mawetbu we Afrika Nine kusasa Elittlbe (This is for love) Igugu e Afrika (This is your love) Sizoni landela ma Afrika Siyayibona Intlanzi Ukukbanya Kwentokozo (Let's for fight for peace, love and harmony) Iguguletbu le Afrika Ukupbela Kwenkinga Zonke
