The Women of Africa

I love the women of Africa
because they look fabulous.
They shine day and night.
They have seven ways to wear their clothes
and they have a skin secret.
I love the women of Africa.

The women of Africa,
they are the true beauties.
At the age of 40, 50, and 60,
the women of Africa are the most wanted.
They are the real role models of Africa -
That is why they say,
"Wathint' abafazi, wathint' imbokodo."

I love the women of Africa.

Africa Will Come Back

Some day,
One day,
Africa will come back.

The pollution, poverty,
The abuse and the struggles -
Some day,
One day,
It will be in the past.

The poverty and weakness in people -
Some day,
One day,
It will be in the past.

The abuse of women, children,
and the environment -
Some day,
One day,
It will be in the past.

The struggles of people
are more, not less,
Big, not small,
Loud, not soft.

Some day,
One day,
It will be in the past ...

Because Africa,
Africa will come back,
'cause the struggles will be in the past.
