Jailed and beaten, left to die

Political prisoners of apartheid

Youth of the nation violently oppressed

In the quest for freedom thousands dead

How can we let this be

In their country they must be free

When will segration end

When will the masses be free again

I can't conceive of this injustice

I can't believe it's going on

White man's law is held supreme

Black man have no rights at all

How can we let this be

In their country they must be free

When will segration end

When will the masses be free again

In this age let's have harmony

All people can be free

This injustice mustnow end

The masses will be free again

How can we let this be

In their country they must be free

When will segration end

When will the masses be free again
