Hugh Masekela
Send Me (Thuma Mina)
[Verse 1]
I wanna be there when the people start to turn it around
When they triumph over poverty
I wanna be there when the people win the battle against AIDS
I wanna lend a hand
I wanna be there for the alcoholic
I wanna be there for the drug addict
I wanna be there for the victims of violence and abuse
I wanna lend a hand
Send me

[Chorus]
Thuma mina (thuma m'na)
Thuma mina (ezizweni)
Ndizoya ndithandaze
Thuma mina (thuma m'na)
Thuma mina (ezizweni)
Ndizoya ndithandaze

[Verse 2]
I wanna be there when the people win the battle against AIDS
I wanna lend a hand
I wanna be there for the victims of violence and abuse
I wanna lend a hand
Send me
[Chorus]
Thuma mina (thuma m'na)
Thuma mina (ezizweni)
Ndizoya ndithandaze
Thuma mina (thuma m'na)
Thuma mina (ezizweni)
Ndizoya ndithandaze
