Amambuka, amambuka azothengisa izwe lakithi, izwe lakithi
(The betrayers, the betrayers will sell our land, our land)

He was taken in the night
They came without any warning
No time to hide or fight
They came like bees aswarming
The questions start to fly
Will he break or will he defy?
Can he withstand the worst that is to come?
A child in a man's clothing
Resisting the fascist' ploy
The underground puts iron in the heart of any boy
Swimming in a sea of pain, he knows this is the end
He hears himself whisper the name of his best friend

Chorus:
I never betrayed you, and I never betrayed the revolution
I just didn't want to die alone, I needed you to see me home
And if I could save you, and if I could find a solution
I would die a thousand times, to get you out of here

Sharing the same cold cell
Betrayer and betrayed
An island with two frightened castaways
Not a word is spoken,
How can he explain?
Through swollen eyes they watch the dawn's first rays
It's all over now
They stand backs to the wall
Waiting for the fascist's sword to fall
In the desperation of a young life about to end
He turns before the bullet
And forgives a friend

Chorus



Mirror lyrics:


Chorus

And forgives a friend
He turns before the bullet
In the desperation of a young life about to end
Waiting for the fascist's sword to fall
They stand backs to the wall
It's all over now
Through swollen eyes they watch the dawn's first rays
How can he explain?
Not a word is spoken,
An island with two frightened castaways
Betrayer and betrayed
Sharing the same cold cell

I would die a thousand times, to get you out of here
And if I could save you, and if I could find a solution
I just didn't want to die alone, I needed you to see me home
I never betrayed you, and I never betrayed the revolution
Chorus:

He hears himself whisper the name of his best friend
Swimming in a sea of pain, he knows this is the end
The underground puts iron in the heart of any boy
Resisting the fascist' ploy
A child in a man's clothing
Can he withstand the worst that is to come?
Will he break or will he defy?
The questions start to fly
They came like bees aswarming
No time to hide or fight
They came without any warning
He was taken in the night

(The betrayers, the betrayers will sell our land, our land)
Amambuka, amambuka azothengisa izwe lakithi, izwe lakithi
