THE RHYTHM OF AFRICA
From the high mountain tops and the deep valleys below
We hear the sound of people calling for unity and peace
in our land - Our Africa!
---
The sound of the rhythm of the beating of her drums
pulse like blood through her arteries and veins.
The rhythm of her drums call her people to her breast
Without unity their bones will never rest
---
Feel the soil on which you stand My children it's your land
Hear small babies crying while their mothers are slowly dying
in our land - Our Africa!
---
The sound of the rhythm of the beating of her drums
pulse like blood through her arteries and veins.
The rhythm of her drums call her people to her breast
Without unity their bones will never rest
---
Deep in the jungles of Africa we hear lions roar
Just over the border sound the guns from the men of war
in our land - Our Africa!
---
The sound of the rhythm of the beating of her drums
pulse like blood through her arteries and veins.
The rhythm of her drums call her people to her breast
Without unity their bones will never rest
---
Hear the little children singing while their mothers dance
For Madeba brings a promise of unity and chance
in our land - Our Africa!
---
The sound of the rhythm of the beating of her drums
pulse like blood through her arteries and veins.
The rhythm of her drums call her people to her breast
Without unity their bones will never rest
in our land - Our Africa!
---
The sound of the rhythm of the beating of her drums
pulse like blood through her arteries and veins.
The rhythm of her drums call her people to her breast
Without unity their bones will never rest
in our land - Our Africa!
---
The sound of the rhythm of the beating of her drums
pulse like blood through her arteries and veins.
The rhythm of her drums call her people to her breast
Without unity their bones will never rest
in our land - Our Africa!
---
Where is sound of the rhythm of the beating of her drums ........
