Lyrics:
Amambuka, amambuka azothengisa izwe lakithi, izwe lakithi (The betrayers, the betrayers will sell our land, our land) He was taken in the night They came without any warning No time to hide or fight They came like bees aswarming The questions start to fly Will he break or will he defy? Can he withstand the worst that is to come? A child in a man's clothing Resisting the fascist' ploy The underground puts iron in the heart of any boy Swimming in a sea of pain, he knows this is the end He hears himself whisper the name of his best friend Chorus: I never betrayed you, and I never betrayed the revolution I just didn't want to die alone, I needed you to see me home And if I could save you, and if I could find a solution I would die a thousand times, to get you out of here Sharing the same cold cell Betrayer and betrayed An island with two frightened castaways Not a word is spoken, How can he explain? Through swollen eyes they watch the dawn's first rays It's all over now They stand backs to the wall Waiting for the fascist's sword to fall In the desperation of a young life about to end He turns before the bullet And forgives a friend Chorus
