Bazeza bafana banani wema Bazeza bafana banani wema Bazeza bafana banani wema Bazeza bafana banani wema Baphethi ifasha, baphethi bazuka Bathi sangena zavuma thina Laphi zange bangena Abazali bethu nabadyala Waya sikhale nathi na Ngoba asina vothi The West is sleeping in a fragile freedom Forgotten is the price that was paid Ten thousand years of marching through a veil of tears To break a few links in these chains These things come to us by way of much pain Don't let us slip back into the dark On a second boom, a distant shore A new image of man The shape of his own future Now in his own hands He says One man, one vote He's stepping to the future One man, one vote In a human jury state One man, one vote Tell them when you see them One man, one vote It's the only way In the East the giant is awakening And in the South we feel the rising tide The soul inside the spark that gives the breath to your life Can no longer be made to hide These things come to us by way of much pain Don't let us slip back into the dark On a second boom, a distant shore A new image of man The shape of his own future Now in his own hands He says One man, one vote He's stepping to the future One man, one vote In a human jury state One man, one vote Tell them when you see them One man, one vote It's the only way Bazeza bafana banani wema Bazeza bafana banani wema Bazeza bafana banani wema Bazeza bafana banani wema Baphethi ifasha, baphethi bazuka Bathi sangena zavuma thina Laphi zange bangena Abazali bethu nabadyala Waya sikhale nathi na Ngoba asina vothi One man, one vote He's stepping to the future One man, one vote In a human jury state One man, one vote Guaranteed more freedom One man, one vote That's what I said One man, one vote One man, one vote One man, one vote One man, one vote One man, one vote One man, one vote One man, one vote One man, one vote One man, one vote
