Human Rainbow Lyrics - Johnny Clegg & Savuka

Baleka uzohaqwa! 

(escape before you are injured!) 

Uwahaqwa! 

(too late he is injured!) 

Webaba sicel'impilo 

(father, give us life, save our lives) 

 

At the end of all bloody human storms 

As the last embers and flames glow 

We peer up into the wounded sky 

And search for the human rainbow 

And in the fading light I wonder why 

We can never free it from the sky 

 

Wangitshela lendaba 

(you have told me of this thing) 

I can see it, but never be it, until I free it 

From the sky 

 

Chorus 

 

Same old human story 

The saddest winds do blow 

While we are trapped in the language of dark history 

Underneath a human rainbow 

 

An angry young man draws in the air 

Political equations 

But time corrupts the fruit they bare 

And leads to more desperation 

While in the sky -- it's a trick of the light 

Shine the colors of all creation 

 

Chorus 

 

Ngizokutshela! 

(I will tell you, that's how it is). 

 

Same old human story 

Same old human story
