Dzoto
Muchariziya ere dzoto?
Bhora rekanyi
Ndiro rakatikudza
Ndiro raitibatanidza
Andiriyarwi
Kubve mudzotomwo
Vamweni vakatambire kundla huru
Waizwe kweyaa dzooridwa
Tooende kwaNyamahumba
Teihlongana neafana ekwaMatoro
Gare gare raabukuta
Ndeisuka afana
Ana Goko naana Mariya teibadzura
Wati ideya ere rendaibeka
Ndiani wakauya nedzoto?
Zvirozvi andichazvioni mukanyi
Ngei tagume pakadaro?
Inhamo ere, kana kuti chiinyi?
Tisarashe njiradzi vakhiti
Kubatana kunounzwa ngezviro zvidokozvi
Musariyarwa dzoto
Muchamuziya ere Yogo Yogo, Soko
Thula, Eddie Dube, Zabron, Millas
Shecky Machuwaire, Kenzo
Zebedhiya waridze mhururu
Wainga mushando wachona chikwehle
Chiro chega chega Chinoumbwe kubve ngepashi
Musariyarwa dzoto!!!

Somewhere I read
My beloved Africa
What went wrong
Some years back
We were at war with the Whites
Challenging their system
Yet today
Africa lives in the same system
What went wrong Africa
The same oppression
The same dictatorship
Yet in these summits
We boast of Freedom!!!
Freedom Freedom Freedom!
What Freedom
I ask again and again
What Africa call Freedom
I have never seen such
Where a brother can not write freely
Where a brother can not demonstrate freely
Yet in these unions
We claim we are democracies
