Woolies and Soweto Gospel Choir: A Tribute to Madiba. Look at how wonderful and beautiful this tribute is!

In tribute to Madiba (Nelson Mandela), WoolWorths and Soweto Gospel Choir put together a beautiful flash mob at the W Cafe. Below are the lyrics to this beautiful “impromtu” rendition of Asimbonanga:

Asimbonanga [we have not seen him]

Asimbonang’ uMandela thina [we have not seen Mandela]

Laph’ekhona [in the place where he is]

Laph’ehleli khona [in the place where he is kept]

Asimbonanga

Asimbonang ‘umfowethu thina [we have not seen our brother]

Laph’ekhona [in the place where he is]

Laph’wafela khona [in the place where he died]

Sithi: Hey, wena [We say: hey, you]

Hey, wena nawe [Hey, you and you]

Siyofika nini la’ siyakhona [when will we arrive at our destination]

Listen to the beautiful melody and let the words move you.
