Unotamba sei (You dance like)
Usina mangwana mukomana (You have no tomorrow, brother)
Unotamba sei (You dance like)
Usina mangwana (You have not tomorrow)
Things can’t remain the same
Why keep on with the old rules when today’s a new game
I’m tired of all this fighting and I’m trying to find
Some people who know how to be kind
So whether you chant a psalm or read the Koran
Here I am, I’m reaching out my hand
So come on now
Don’t let me down
Don’t let me down
Don’t walk away
I’ve got something I wanna say
I’ve been waiting for you
Waiting for you
Don’t let me down
Don’t let me down.
So now who are the children of a lesser God
But those who believe God is lesser.
It’s a choice did you come to curse
Or are you going to be a blesser
So whether you offer the ancestors libations
Or find some peace in meditation
Here I am just another man born from a woman
And I’m reaching out my hand
So come on now
