Utshani Obulele Lyrics

Johnny Clegg Utshani Obulele

Chorus :
UTSHANI OBULELE BUVUSWA WUMLILO
The dry dead grass is made young and green by fire

I’ve come to this place
Where you stole my innocence
I was young then
But I’m older now

Do you remember my face?
Do you recall this place?
Because I remember you
And the things that you do

Some need to feel pain
To learn the game
To feel the fire
And be born again
Here I am now
The night has begun
This is me now, waiting for the sun

CHORUS

I’m still standing
Made it thru’ this fire
I was weaker then
But I’m stronger now

NGIZOVUKA-NJE MINA
I will be re-awakened and reborn

Lessons in love
Lessons in pain
I was weaker then
But i’m stronger now

Do you remember my face
Do you recall this place
Because I remember you
And the things that you do

Some need to feel pain
To learn the game
To feel the fire
And be born again
Here I am now
The night has begun
This is me now, waiting for the sun
