Deep dark down on the foreshore
That questions what we live for
Sign reads like a tombstone blues
Colors like a rainbow
Fall back in a dark hole
And a questioning comes burning through

Wamkele wamkile wamkelekile
Wamkele wamkile for sho
Wamkele wamkile wamkelekile
Wamkele wamkile for sho

Time is like an ocean
Singular but broken
We are wooden pegs on a board
Sudden like a rainstorm
Voice pours from from heavens
Is this is your final welcome home

Wamkele wamkile wamkelekile
Wamkele wamkile for sho
Wamkele wamkile wamkelekile
Wamkele wamkile for sho

Kamakwen
Ningabaleli kuthula
Nan'niyabuya ekudingisweni
Siyanizikhelela
Siyanibulela
Siyan'mkela nezanhla zishushu
Namkelekile namkelekile
Halala!

Freedom is like a notion
Tied to a tree in ocean
I'm like a sailor on a ship with no home
I'm left with one question burning my direction
If I had a choice which way would I go?

Wamkele wamkile wamkelekile
Wamkele wamkile for sho
Wamkele wamkile wamkelekile
Wamkele wamkile for sho

Wamkele wamkile wamkelekile
Wamkele wamkile for sho
Wamkele wamkile wamkelekile
Wamkele wamkile for sho

Wamkele wamkile wamkelekile
Wamkele wamkile for sho
Wamkele wamkile wamkelekile
Wamkele wamkile for sho
