He was born before me
By the time I was born
He was already there
Struggling, fighting with white people
Fighting with apartheid
Fighting for democracy

Nelson mandela fought for freedom
In 1956 women were fighting
With the law of always carrying dompass
But at the end.....Nelson defeated
In 1990 apartheid ended
There was peace and quietness
In 1994 Mandela became the president
The first black president in South Africa

As he was crowned
He walked upon the union buildings
And said "AMANDLA"
And then he said
" Never , never and never again shall it be ,that this beautiful land will again experience, oppression of one by another "

Nelson Mandela was a hero
May his soul rest in peace
Qhawe la maqhawe
Hero of the nations.
