AfriKa

AfriKa

  Put down your guns 
Sons of man
    Put down your evil thoughts 
  Daughters are watching 
     Your daughters 
 The moon is watching 
       It shines its light 
   The night is here 
In the jungles of Afrika
     Put down your weapons 
 Your stones and clubs 
      Leave your hatred 
   For these are your brothers too
       People of Afrika
   People of the earth 
 The fragile land bleeds 
With the blood of your people 
 Your children are watching 
        Your children are watching 
    Every deed
   It is inscribed 
      That the people of Afrika 
            Love 
    In these mountains 
        These green valleys 
Life lives 
   Waters of rivers 
   Of humanity 
       Put down your weapons 
Open your hearts 
Bury your hatred
      Live another day in the 
Life of one people 
   People of Afrika 
People of 
   Afrika
