Lyrics

An injury to one is an injury to all!
AN INJURY TO ONE IS AN INJURY TO ALL
An injury to one is an injury to all!
AN INJURY TO ONE IS AN INJURY TO ALL
Iyo, siyelele Mama (U helele)
Iyo, siyelele Mama (U helele)
Iyo, siyelele Mama (U helele)
Iyo, siyelele Mama (U helele)
Se a lila sechaba, di kgomo difedile (U helele)
Bafedile le bo papa, ba thswaretswe di pasa (U helele)
Setimela se batseiri, bafeletse Johane (U helele)
Ba siman' le ba setsana ba thsabile Soweto (U helele)
Ma seya le ba sadi ba setsi ba le bangwe (U helele)
Tlang le boneng mathata a-Afrika (U helele)
Everything done crashed, all the children be hungry, oh (U helele)
Cows fell or done died, policemen dey palava (U helele)
Teenagers a dem run and barter for goldmine (U helele)
Woman and the small baby, dem all alone (U helele)
Rain, it be so scarce, all the river done dry up (U helele)
Come and see big trouble here for Africa (U helele)
The military mandate take over the government (U helele)
The minister blame foreign intervention (U helele)
The street girl, I say she selling him the poom-poom (U helele)
The East and the West have done paid plenty more, nay (U helele)
Come and see big trouble here for Africa (U helele)
I say, come and see big trouble here for Africa (U helele)
Nang' amaphoyis' adlase liDlamini (U helele)
Emgodini weGoli, amadoda aphelile (U helele)
Asikwazi lokho, buyel' emakhaya (U helele)
Abantwana bayakhala, ubisi luphelile (U helele)
Abotsotsi bezimpimpi ziyakhathaza (U helele)
Yibuhlungu, madoda, le ndaba yaseAfrika (U helele)
Mus' ukukhulum' amaganyana (U helele)
Sesizwil' ukuthi usebenzel' izitha (U helele)
Idlozi livukile, Masibuyel' emakhaya (U helele)
Mus' ukukhulum' amaganyana (U helele)
Abafowethu nodadewethu babalekela eAmerika (U helele)
Wami umalumekazi eZimbabwe (U helele)
Umalume ubolela ejele Medderbee (U helele)
Rangwane e mong o tsofala dibareng (U helele)
Lefatshe lohle le a re tsheha (U helele)
