”Unify us– Don’t divide us“

WESTWIND

Text + Musik: Bongi Makeba

Westwind blow ye gentle
Over the sores of Africa
My sons proud and noble
Here within my heart they lay

Westwind with your wisdom
Gather all the young for me
Dark cloud hanging over
Nest that bosom strong and free

Make us free from exploitation and strive

Cause nothing is, is more precious in life

 

Westwind with your splendor
Take my people by the hand
Spread your glory sunshine
Unify mother Africa

Unify my precious land

Unify us don’t divide us unify us don’t divide us

We don’t need it now lord, let us not fight over trivials

Let us learn how to love ourselves first because unification is the thing

I said unification is the thing

 

Unify us don't divide us unify us don't divide us

Do you hear my friends? Do you hear me my brothers?

Do you hear me my sisters? Do you hear me mama?

Do you hear me god? Do you hear me everybody?

 

Unify us oh don't divide us, don't divide us unify us
We’re tired of poverty, we’re tired of dying

We don’t wanna die, we don’t wanna be poor

We’re tired, unify us

 

Unify us don't divide us don't divide us unify us

Unify us don't divide us don't divide us unify us

Unify us don't divide us don't divide us unify us,

Don't divide us unify us

DON’T DIVIDE US!
