Johnny Clegg & Juluka and Sipho Mchunu - Jwanasibeki

Wemadiliza, wemadiliz' inkani!
Wemadiliza, wemadiliza wenzani!
Qed' inkani eyamadoda!
iJwanasibeki langenzani!
Wemadiliza, wemadiliz' inkani! (iJwanasibeki langenzani!)
Wemadiliza, wemadiliz' inkani! (iJwanasibeki langenzani!)
Qed' inkani eyamadoda!
iJwanasibeki langenzani!

Zabalaza wemfana!
iJwanasibeki langenzani!
Wemaqed' inkani!
iJwanasibeki langenzani!
Zabalaza wemfana!
iJwanasibeki langenzani!
Wemaqed' inkani!
iJwanasibeki langenzani!

Blow whistle, blow (Zabalaza)
Down you go alive
The cage is falling (Zabalaza)
Like a comet in the night
Beads of sweat glisten (Zabalaza)
In the underground light
Smoulder boudler (Zabalaza)
Rock reeks fumes
Songs of the outlands (Zabalaza)
Change colour when shift is due
And you've grown a little older (Zabalaza)
Seen bone blown smoking blue!

Wemadiliza, wemadiliz' inkani!
Wemadiliza, wemadiliza wenzani!
Qed' inkani eyamadoda!
(iJwanasibeki langenzani!)
Zabalaza wemfana!
(iJwanasibeki langenzani!)
Wemaqed' inkani!
(iJwanasibeki langenzani!)
Zabalaza wemfana!
(iJwanasibeki langenzani!)
Wemaqed' inkani!
(iJwanasibeki langenzani!)

Grow city grow (Zabalaza)
Ten thousand men below
Bleed the burning womb (Zabalaza)
Make the sun-rock show
In the wider horizon (Zabalaza)
Where a million lifetimes flow
And you know the secret (Zabalaza)
That glitters and glues the best
Like the feathers of a dead bird (Zabalaza)
That feather the next bird's nest
Jwanasibeki! (Zabalaza)
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow

Wo-hum-m-wo-hum!
Wo-hum-wo-lo-lo-ma!
Wo-hum-m-wo-hum!
Wo-hum-wo-lo-lo-ma!
Wo-hum-m-wo-hum!
Wo-hum-wo-lo-lo-ma!
Wo-hum-m-wo-hum!
Wo-hum-wo-lo-lo-ma!

Wemadiliza, wemadiliz' inkani!
Qed' inkani eyamadoda!
(iJwanasibeki langenzani!)
Wemadiliza wenzani
(iJwanasibeki langenzani!)

Zabalaza wemfana!
(iJwanasibeki langenzani!)
Wemaqed' inkani!
(iJwanasibeki langenzani!)
Zabalaza wemfana!
(iJwanasibeki langenzani!)
Wemaqed' inkani!
(iJwanasibeki langenzani!)

Wo-hum-m-wo-hum!
Wo-hum-wo-lo-lo-ma!

Can you hear (Wo-hum-m-wo-hum!)
Can you hear me (Wo-hum-wo-lo-lo-ma!)
Can you hear (Wo-hum-m-wo-hum!)
Can you hear me (Wo-hum-wo-lo-lo-ma!)
In the wider horizon (Wo-hum-m-wo-hum!)
There's a life-song (Wo-hum-wo-lo-lo-ma!)
All my life gone (Wo-hum-m-wo-hum!)
In a mine song (Wo-hum-wo-lo-lo-ma!)
I shake the world beneath your feet (Wo-hum-m-wo-hum!)
'Cause I'm just working a little bit (Wo-hum-wo-lo-lo-ma!)
I shake the world beneath your feet (Wo-hum-m-wo-hum!)
'Cause I'm just working a little bit (Wo-hum-wo-lo-lo-ma!)

Wemadiliza, wemadiliza (Wo-hum-wo-lo-lo-ma!)
