Mandela Freed South Africa

Mandela, Mandela,
You are South Africa
South Africa, South Africa
You are Nelson Mandela
You suffered deeply for her
Your body language
Express it
So clearly and
The world
Knows that
You are 
So happy
Inside your
Own skin
Well, its
So clear in 
Your eyes
Black man
You know 
Who you are
You know
How to ask
God for wisdom
You know
How to seek
His knowledge
You know 
How to pray
Nelson Mandela
Freed South Africa
Show us
The way
