[Chorus]
Bring back Nelson Mandela
Bring him back home to Soweto
I want to see him walking down the streets
Of South Africa (Tomorrow)
Bring Back Nelson Mandela
Bring him back home to Soweto
I want to see him walking hand in hand
With Winnie Mandela (No more Pollsmoor)
[Break]
Mayibuye!
Mayibuye!
Helele, buya Mandela
Helele, buya Mandela
Helele, buya Mandela
Helele, buya Mandela
[Chorus]
Bring back Nelson Mandela
Bring him back home to Soweto
I want to see him walking down the streets
Of South Africa (Tomorrow)
Bring back Nelson Mandela
Bring him back home to Soweto
I want to see him walking hand in hand
With Winnie Mandela (No more Pollsmoor)
Bring back Nelson Mandela
Bring him back home to Soweto
I want to see him walking down the streets
Of South Africa (Tomorrow)
Bring back Nelson Mandela
Bring him back home to Soweto
I want to see him walking hand in hand
With Winnie Mandela (No more Pollsmoor)
[Break]
Mayibuye!
Mayibuye!
Helele, buya Mandela
Helele, buya Mandela
Helele, buya Mandela
Helele, buya Mandela
