Lyrics
[Intro]
Yeah
Yeah
Alright
Sleeping sons of Jacob, yeah
[Verse 1]
400 years ago
400 years ago
You answered to Pharaoh's call
Chitunzi chamavuto
Chitunzi chamavuto
That is your name no more
No more
[Chorus]
Africa, you are resilient, you are resilient
Ndiwe olimba, ndiwe olimba
Africa, you are resilient, you are resilient
Ndiwe olimba, ndiwe olimba
[Verse 2]
The one who strengthens your hearts
Is a lamp in the darkness
The one who strengthens your hearts
Is a lamp in the darkness
[Verse 3]
Chino chalo
Chino chalo
Chasoba chilungamo
And mighty men shall fall
And mighty men shall fall
But the vision lives on, lives on
[Chorus]
Africa, you are resilient, you are resilient
Ndiwe olimba, ndiwe olimba
Africa, you are resilient, you are resilient
Ndiwe olimba, ndiwe olimba
[Verse 4]
The one who strengthens your hearts
Is a lamp in the darkness
The one who strengthens your hearts
Is a lamp in the darkness
[Bridge]
Muchipingo chatsopano
Tikuyenda muchisomo
Ndimutima watsopano
Revolution is all I know
Muchipingo chatsopano
Tikuyenda muchisomo
Ndimutima watsopano
Operating in overflow
[Outro]
Muchipingo chatsopano
Tikuyenda muchisomo
Ndimutima watsopano
Revolution is all I know
Muchipingo chatsopano
Tikuyenda muchisomo
Ndimutima watsopano
Operating in overflow
[Chorus]
Africa, you are resilient, you are resilient
Ndiwe olimba, ndiwe olimba
Africa, you are resilient, you are resilient
Ndiwe olimba, ndiwe olimba
[Verse 5]
The one who strengthens your hearts
Is a lamp in the darkness
The one who strengthens your hearts
Is a lamp in the darkness
