O'Madiba Madiba, before death heaven was certain
Fears and tears of the oppressed extinguished by your deeds
O'Milk of life, the jewel and joy of our assured gain
You sacrifice the pleasure of your life for our needs
Our tears of blood healed by wounds of your life
Oppressors shivers in fright and take to flight discarding their belief

O'Madiba Madiba, father of many nations
The winds and birds of the earth sings your praises
Long after the end of your painful missions
Who will raise us another hero amongst these tearsful faces
For your sake, friends and foes grace your platform of joy
Enjoying the pleasant moments of your blood stained toil

O'Madiba Madiba, the sands of the earth lack dignity to bury you
For the shine of your vision was the source of our strenght
You soothes our existence with a glorious end like a fading morning dew
Your immortality arrives long before your death
The light of your fulfillment was the springboard of our hope
You legacy forever enshrined in our heart devoid of any doubt or probe
