The great flood of tears that we've cried
For our brothers and sisters who've died
Over four hundred years has washed away our fears
And strengthened our pride
Now we turn back the tide

We will no longer hear your command
We will seize the control from your hand
We will fan the flames of our anger and pain
And you'll feel the shame for what you do in God's name

And we will fight for the right to be free
And we will build our own society
And we will sing, we will sing
We will sing our own song

When the ancient drum rhythms ring
The voice of our forefathers sings
Forward Africa run, our day of freedom has come
For me and for you
Amandla Awethu

And we will fight for the right to be free
And we will build our own society
And we will sing, we will sing
We will sing our own song

When the ancient drum rhythms ring
The voice of our forefathers sings
Forward Africa run, our day of freedom has come
For me and for you
Amandla Awethu

Yeah

And we will fight for the right to be free
And we will build our own society
And we will sing, we will sing
We will sing our own song

And we will fight for the right to be free
And we will build our own society
And we will sing, we will sing
We will sing our own song

We'll fight for the right to be free (Amandla Awethu, Awethu)
In our own society ((Amandla Awethu, Awethu Amandla Awethu)
We will sing, sing our own song (Amandla Awethu, Awethu)

We'll fight for the right to be free (Amandla Awethu, Awethu)
In our own society ((Amandla Awethu, Awethu Amandla Awethu)
We will sing, sing our own song (Amandla Awethu, Awethu)

We'll fight for the right to be free (Amandla Awethu, Awethu)
In our own society ((Amandla Awethu, Awethu Amandla Awethu)
We will sing, sing our own song (Amandla Awethu, Awethu)
