The beat! the beat!
Of the African drums
Soul beat! Heart beat!
That soft, steady hum
The Motherland calls
"KUJA NYUMBANI MTOTO WANGU!
To yuh Mama, to yuh Africa
to my sweet sweet soil"
Sweet mama Oh Africa
I shall return home
Marching to Zion
to that beautiful song.
(The phrase in in Swahili and translates to "come home my child")
