Phiwe Mbatha - Udume Ngani?

Abanye baziwa ngezimbongi
Ezagiya ngosiba lanyakaza
Leli likaSenzangakhona kaJama
Kwakhala isalukazi sivuthela
Sathi bayazala abafazi
Waziwa ngani?

Abanye balwela inkululeko
Yombusazwe esiqhingini i-Robben
Bekhathele ukugqilazwa kwabamnyama
Intsha yahlala izithonto
Emaphoyiseni ngolimi lwesiBhunu
Waziwa ngani?

Abanye babonisa ubuqhawe
Balwa iNcome yayigazi
Balwa iSandlwana saluthuthusana
Bahlaba mahlanze eShiyane
Bevikela leli likaMthaniya
Waziwa ngani?

Abanye baqamba imihlahlandlela
Abaningi bakha amabhuloho
Idlanzana laqinisa kojantshi
Abahlengikazi bonga kwasa
Abafundisi baqeketha bangama
Waziwa ngani?
