When You Come Back Lyrics

This is the unknown grave
The one who died maintaining his mind
His will had been so strong and musically inclined
His sad melody is coming out like smoke from the wood fire
Confessing
Who died last night
Who died this morning
And why
One dangerous mind
And four million graves
Look down into that grave
And do not weep
Skeleton confessing
The age of lamentations
And the age of broken minds and souls
I picked up the soil
From this unknown grave
And blew it in the wind
As to make reference one day
And I say
Mayibuye iAfrica
Sing now, Africa
Sing loud and sing to the people
Let them give something to the world and not just take from it
(Ch) We'll ring the bells when you come back
We'll ring the bells when you come back (x4)

Our los African music will turn into the music of the people
Yes people's music by the peoples c**ture and I will be the one who will climb up the mountain
Reaching for the top of our African days while women working for the lazy lot, sing!
(Ch) Africa Sing, Africa sing,
Africa sing, Africa sing (x8)
Sing sing Africa, sing Africa
