[Intro: Crowd]
Ngomhla sibuyayo
Ngomhla sibuyayo
Ngomhla sibuyayo, kophalal'igazi!
Ngomhla sibuyayo
Ngomhla sibuyayo
Ngomhla sibuyayo, kophalal'igazi!
Bakhala uVorster!
Bakhala uVorster!
Ngomhla sibuyayo, kophalal'igazi!
Ngomhla sibuyayo
Ngomhla sibuyayo
Ngomhla sibuyayo, kophalal'igazi!

[Verse 1: Peter Gabriel]
September '77
Port Elizabeth weather fine
It was business as usual
In police room 619

[Chorus: Peter Gabriel]
Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
Yihla moja, yihla moja
The man is dead
The man is dead
[Interlude]

[Verse 2: Peter Gabriel]
When I try and sleep at night
I can only dream in red
The outside world is black and white
With only one colour dead

[Chorus: Peter Gabriel]
Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
Yihla moja, yihla moja
The man is dead
The man is dead

[Interlude]

[Verse 3: Peter Gabriel]
You can blow out a candle
But you can't blow out a fire
Once the flames begin to catch
The wind will blow it higher

[Chorus: Peter Gabriel]
Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
Yihla moja, yihla moja
The man is dead
The man is dead
[Post-Chorus: Peter Gabriel]
And the eyes of the world
Are watching now
Watching now

[Interlude]
