Thou we struggle
Jah is the ruler and protector of I and I life
All man a bawl
(Eh)

Fighting to attain our rights
Want no more shedding of blood
For our nation to move forward

(Mozambique)
Africans with African pride
(Zambia)
Fighting to attain our rights
Want no more shedding of blood
For dis nation to move forward

What make we can't all unite
Put each man difference aside
Why can't we just come together
Cease from tribal wars and fight?

Who knows better must do better
A source of collective insight
May not be exposed to education
But surely knows wrong from right

Fighting to attain our rights
Want no more shedding of blood
For dis nation to move forward

Fighting to attain our rights
Want no more shedding of blood

Self help with inner motivation
Teach I to be self sufficient
Don't want to depend on no one
For attainment of my bread

Oh, these words, oh, my calling
Children crying white squall tears
Hunger rampant, harvest plenty
(Ooh, we, whoa)

(Senegal)
Africans with African pride

Fighting to attain our rights
Want no more shedding of blood
For any nation to move forward

(Ethiopia)
Africans with African pride

Fighting to attain our rights
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)

(Unde-lay, unde-lay, unde-lay, uh, lay, lay, woi)
(Unde-lay, unde-lay, unde-lay, uh, lay, lay, woi)
(Woi)

For dis nation to move forward

What make we can't all unite
Put each man difference aside
Why can't we just come together
Cease dis tribal war and fight

Who knows better must do better
A source of collective insight
May not be exposed to education
But surely knows wrong from right

Fighting to attain our rights
Want no more shedding of blood
For dis nation to move forward

Want no more shedding of blood
For dis nation to move forward
Want no more shedding of blood
For dis nation to move forward

Want no more shedding of blood
For dis nation to move forward
Want no more shedding of blood
For dis nation to move forward
