Sabelani - Miriam Makeba

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

Sabelani (Sabelani ma)

They’re singing it in Soweto

Sabelani (Sabelani ma)

They’re singing Sabelani

Sabelani
