Johnny Clegg & Savuka Lyrics
Unkosibomvu

Carry him, carry him, onana
Carry the spirit of unkosibomvu
Wema man
Carry the breath of the nation
Bind it into the summer's winds
Wema man
Remember him to his enemies
Recall to them their burning land
Wema man

The swallows are dreaming
of an old black bull
With mist in his eyes and
moss on his horns
When he unsheathes his anger
the world is in flames
Red clouds cover a blood-red
moon dripping sorrow from
the sky

Wen'kosibomvu
Wen'kosibomvu

Awu sithi bo-hum, etc.

Carry him carry him, onana
Carry the spirit of unkosibomvu
Wema man
Carry the spirit of the nation
Bind it into the summer's winds
Wema man
Remember him to his enemies
Recall to them their burning land
Wema man

The swallows have heard the
bellow of the bullfrog
Rinsing and ringing through the
valleys and the hills
It will take many spears to make him kneel
And just a few more to bring him to rest
Wen'kosibomvu

Awu sithi bo-hum, etc.
