Happy Mama |
| It’s been a forty years and a day |
| Since they came to take her away |
| She got twenty years in jail |
| For riding the freedom train |
| In the end she had to leave SA |
| Into exile in LA |
| When she saw her mama again |
| These are the only words she could say |
| Mama Moya jamula |
| Mama Moya jamula |
| Mama Moya jamula |
| Onmo kefike Kaya |
| Onmo kekuye Kaya |
| But maa Muya jamula |
| Mama Muya jamula |
| Mama thought she’d never see her again |
| Many exiles never returned |
| Nobody knew where her baby had gone |
| But it wasnt long before freedom |
| And when Mandela came out of jail |
| There was her daughter walking next to the man |
| When she ran into her mother’s arms |
| These are the only words she could say |
| Mama Moya jamula |
| Onmo kefike Kaya.. . |
| Mama Moya jamula… |
| Onmo kefike Kaya… |
