Until the philosophy which hold one race superior

And another

Inferior

Is finally

And permanently

Discredited

And abandoned

Everywhere is war

Me say war.

That until there no longer

First class and second class citizens of any nation

Until the colour of a man's skin

Is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes

Me say war.

That until the basic human rights

Are equally guaranteed to all,

Without regard to race

Dis a war.

That until that day

The dream of lasting peace,

World citizenship

Rule of international morality

Will remain in but a fleeting illusion to be pursued,

But never attained

Now everywhere is war - war.

And until the ignoble and unhappy regimes

That hold our brothers in Angola,

In Mozambique,

South Africa

Sub-human bondage

Have been toppled,

Utterly destroyed

Well, everywhere is war

Me say war.

War in the east,

War in the west,

War up north,

War down south

War - war

Rumours of war.

And until that day,

The African continent

Will not know peace,

We Africans will fight - we find it necessary

And we know we shall win

As we are confident

In the victory

Of good over evil

Good over evil, yeah!

Good over evil

Good over evil, yeah!

Good over evil

Good over evil, yeah!
