The Poem: Madiba

True to his people, true to his land

He will always be remembered, for him we will always stand

( Sanele )

God blessed our land, He is always kind

When the night is darkest, the light you will find

( Mpumelelo )

At last you won, at last

And forgave all that happened in the past

( Sifiso )

The world with its blanket of darkness was unmoved, unfazed

You were the beacon of light, brave and untamed

( Andrew )

We held to darkness, real tight but had to eventually let go

The truth came to light like the sun from behind those clouds

( Karlos )

What was it that ket you going; after all those losses after all that pain

World will never see another Madiba, never again- never again.

( Mozam )

On the sill of some church, the extinguished candles stand in a row.

When the night believes it has won over light, the new sun is born.

( Mozam )
