A silent call from a distant land

Crying for a helping hand, so

How long will it go on

Ignorance and vanity

Supercede humanity, so

How long will it go on?

I want to know how long will it go on?

Chorus

We can’t wait any longer

They’re crying out, doesn’t it matter

We can’t wait any longer

No, no

Too long in a slumber

Shake it up, wake it up now

We can’t wait any longer

No, no

Another child is laid to rest

Another day of hopelessness, so

How long will it go on?

And every day we’re on the fence brings

Another fatal consequence, so

How long will it go on?

I want to know how long will this go on?

Yuko awezayo kusikia kilio chetu? (Can somebody hear us crying out?)

Twaomba msaada wenu (Somebody help us)

Aweko mwenye kutuokoa (Somebody save us)

Aweko mwenye kutupa uhuru (Somebody free us)
