Lomhlaba unzima, lomhlaba   [this world is a harsh place, this world]      Picture the end of a cycle   Here's the fire from heaven   There's a tired planeet closing down   No more news at eleven   Somewhere the last of a species has died   Somewhere a child is born   When I hold you, I tremble inside   Can we ride out the storm?    Are you tough enough -- can you take the strain?    Are you tough enough -- to walk in the burning rain   Are you tough enough -- can you take the change?    Are you tough enough -- baby just say!      Chorus:   Into the heart of the human dream   Into a strange new world   Remember me under the tree of man   Where I first heard your words   Gonna make it through, I can feel it      What we need is a miracle   What we need is some time   What we need is an angel of mercy   In this life      Are you tough enough -- can you take the heat?    Are you tough enough -- to walk in the burning street   Are you tough enough -- can you take the change   Are you tough enough -- baby just say!      Chorus...      There's your mama and your papa   Waving good-bye in the cold moonlight   In their eyes the confusion of a world gone by   And you hold me tightly as we step out   Into the morning light   And I know you are thinking that for something to be born   Somthing has to die.      Chorus...      Vele vele we mama kunjalo   [it is true, it's obvious. mama, it is just as you say].
