The year 1963 The people's president Was taken away by security men All dressed in a uniform The brutality, brutality Oh, no, my black president Him and his comrades Were sentenced to isolation For many painful years For many painful years Many painful years Of hard labour They broke ropes But the spirit was never broken Never broken Oh, no, my, my black president Hmm maa (3x) Mama Hmm maa (3x) Mama Hmm maa (3x) Madiba Hmm maa (3x) Letras de cancionesMadiba Ahh, nyu ye uyee huu He broke ropes But his spirit was never broken Never broken Oh oh oh, my president Now in 1990 The people's president Came out from jail Raised up his hand and said 'Viva, viva, my people' He walked the long road Back, back to freedom Back, back to freedom Freedom for my black president Let us rejoice for our president Let us sing for our president Let us pray for our president Let us sing, let us dance For Madiba give us freedom We thank you Lord For listening to our prayers Night and day Oh oh oh, my president Madiba My president I will die for my president I will sing for my president I will stand and say Viva, viva, viva, viva, viva, viva From Letras Mania
