Lyrics of Asimbonanga (Mandela) by Johnny Clegg
Asimbonanga
Asimbonang′ uMandela thina
Laph'ekhona
Laph′ehleli khona
Asimbonanga
Asimbonang' uMandela thina
Laph'ekhona
Laph′ehleli khona
Oh the sea is cold and the sky is grey
Look across the Island into the Bay
We are all islands till comes the day
We cross the burning water
Asimbonanga
Asimbonang′ uMandela thina
Laph'ekhona
Laph′ehleli khona
Asimbonanga
Asimbonang' uMandela thina
Laph′ekhona
Laph'ehleli khona
A seagull wings across the sea
Broken silence is what I dream
Who has the words to close the distance
Between you and me
Asimbonanga
Asimbonang′ uMandela thina
Laph'ekhona
Laph'ehleli khona
Asimbonanga
Asimbonang′ uMandela thina
Laph′ekhona
Laph'ehleli khona
