Miriam Makeba


Sabelani (Sabelani ma) (2x) 
Sabelani 
Sabelani (Sabelani ma) 
Sabelani means answer me 
Sabelani (Sabelani ma) 
I wanna sing a township-song 
Sabelani 

It's just that simple thing 
They do in Soweto 
That make you answer me 
Together again 

Sabelani (Sabelani ma) 
They're singing it in Soweto 
Sabelani (Sabelani ma) 
They are singing Sabelani 
Sabelani 
It's just a simple thing 
They do in Soweto 
And when you answer me 
Together again 

If you answer to my call 
You can come among with me 
To a place where we can all 
Get around and come together 
Sabelani from today 
Sabelani til tomorrow 
Everybody answer me 
Everybody: "Sabelani" 

Sabelani (Sabelani ma) 
Sabelani means answer me 
Sabelani (Sabelani ma) 
I want to sing a township-song 
Sabelani(2x) 

Sabelani (Sabelani ma) 
They're singing it in Soweto 
Sabelani (Sabelani ma) 
They're singing Sabelani 
Sabelani
