Lyrics Siyayilanda - Johnny Clegg, Savuka

Siyayilanda

Siyayibamba siyayilanda
Ngithibamba siyayilanda
Sithibamba siyayilanda
Fetch it siyayilanda
(we are fetching our future, grabbing our tomorrow)
Siyayibamba siyayilanda
Ngithibamba siyayilanda
Sithibamba siyayilanda
Fetch it siyayilanda
(we are fetching our future, grabbing our tomorrow)
Human figures in a dream
Heard them singing -- siyayilanda (we are fetching it)
You’ve got to get up
And carry on sing this song -- siyayilanda
There’s a mean machine
Tear the bone clean, tell you
Where I’ve been -- siyayilanda
Eat, sleep on your feet
You’re going to speak -- siyayilanda
Siyayibamba siyayilanda
Ngithibamba siyayilanda
Sithibamba siyayilanda
Fetch it siyayilanda
(we are fetching our future, grabbing our tomorrow)
A falling star in the night
Comfort the weeper -- siyayilanda
You turn to the left and you turn to the right
Losers, keepers -- siyayilanda
Hold me close I’m trapped in
A night of seasons -- siyayilanda
A new sun rising up ahead
Coming your way -- siyayilanda
Siyayibamba siyayilanda
Ngithibamba siyayilanda
Sithibamba siyayilanda
Fetch it siyayilanda
(we are fetching our future, grabbing our tomorrow)
I can feel it in the air
My day is coming nearer
My day’s a little nearer
