Talking and Dialoguing

Miriam Makeba
Lingua: Inglese


Miriam Makeba


Our brothers African,
do you understand,
this is our land?

Look at Vorster come and go
everywhere.
See our brothers smile at him,
here and there.
All day long,
they just keep on talking.
Year after year,
they just keep on dialoguing

South Africa!
Colonised by whites.
Black men have no rights.
Exploited and oppressed,
by fear and brutalness.

South Africa!
Talking about state within a state,
just one more iron gate,
with the Bantustan fiction,
more suffrage and addiction.

What is this thing
called dialogue?
Is détente
what you want?
What is this thing
called dialogue?

It's your land! Make your stand!
To be free, let's be one, Africans.

Our brothers African,
do you understand,
this is my land?

Look at Vorster come and go
everywhere.
See our brothers smile at him,
here and there.
All day long,
they just keep on talking.
Year after year,
they just keep on dialoguing...
