African Dream β Soweto Gospel Choir lyrics π African Dream β Soweto Gospel Choir song
[Verse 1]Sometimes alone in the evening
I look outside my window
Shadows in the night
I hear the sound of distant crying
The darkness multiplying
The weary hearts denied
All I feel is my heart beat
Beating like a drum
Beating with confusion
All I hear are the voices
Telling me to go
But I can never run [Chorus]βCos in my African Dream
Thereβs a new tomorrow
My African dream
Is a dream that we can follow [Verse 2]Now when the night begins to fall
I listen for your call
I listen for your heartbeat
Alone, my dream is just a dream
Another false illusion
A shadow in the night
All I want is for our heartbeat
To beat just as one
To silence that confusion
And the pain and the illusion
Will disappear again
And we will never run
Repeat Chorus [Verse 3]And though it seems
(helele helele mama)
My hope is an illusion
(helele helele mama)
My African dream
(helele helele mama)
Brings an end to the confusion [Verse 4]Bawetu we Afrika (Bawetu we Afrika)
Sinelusasa elihle (Sinelusasa elihle)
Igugu le Afrika (Igugu le Africa)
Sizolilandela ma Afrika (This is my African dream)
Siyayibona inhlanzi (Let us sing in one harmony)
Ukukhanya kwentokozo (Helele yelele yelele yelele)
Igugu le Africa (Uuuh uuuh)
Ukuphela kwenkinga zonke (Igugu le Africa)
Bawetu we Afrika (Bawetu we Afrika)
Sinelusasa elihle (Sinelusasa elihle)
Igugu le Afrika (Uuuh Uuuh )
Sizolilandela ma Afrika (Sizokulandela ma Afrika)
Siyayibona inhlanzi (Siyayibona Siyayibona)
Ukukhanya kwentokozo (Ukukhanya kwentokozo)
Igugu le Africa (Uuuh uuuh)
Ukuphela kwenkinga zonke
I look outside my window
Shadows in the night
I hear the sound of distant crying
The darkness multiplying
The weary hearts denied
All I feel is my heart beat
Beating like a drum
Beating with confusion
All I hear are the voices
Telling me to go
But I can never run [Chorus]βCos in my African Dream
Thereβs a new tomorrow
My African dream
Is a dream that we can follow [Verse 2]Now when the night begins to fall
I listen for your call
I listen for your heartbeat
Alone, my dream is just a dream
Another false illusion
A shadow in the night
All I want is for our heartbeat
To beat just as one
To silence that confusion
And the pain and the illusion
Will disappear again
And we will never run
Repeat Chorus [Verse 3]And though it seems
(helele helele mama)
My hope is an illusion
(helele helele mama)
My African dream
(helele helele mama)
Brings an end to the confusion [Verse 4]Bawetu we Afrika (Bawetu we Afrika)
Sinelusasa elihle (Sinelusasa elihle)
Igugu le Afrika (Igugu le Africa)
Sizolilandela ma Afrika (This is my African dream)
Siyayibona inhlanzi (Let us sing in one harmony)
Ukukhanya kwentokozo (Helele yelele yelele yelele)
Igugu le Africa (Uuuh uuuh)

Igugu le Africa (Uuuh uuuh)
Ukuphela kwenkinga zonke
