Life

Maa

keep
your
head
up
high
When
your

can
trace
your

on
the

You
walk
with
caution,
you
are
never
alone
But
if
you
move
to
the
soft
and
shifting
sand
Be
careful
now,
man,
understand
the
plan
I
bury
my
treasure,
it’
s
hidden
in
the
deep
I
will
not
cry
foolishly
while
the
world
is
asleep
Bafanayaa,
the

is

Don't
leave
a

were
once

standing
tall
in

But
the
enemies
brought
the
darkness
of
the
night
But
we
rise
again,
we
rise
again
today
Walking
through
the
fire
in
a
better
way
I
am
not
a
happy
man,
the
burden
is
heavy
to
bear
But
what
can
I
do
but
breathe
in
the
morning
air?
Maa

the

the

I

I
