Afrika

Jutro, zlatna obala, bijeli stranci
rane ispod okova, zvece lanci
crne zene naricu, nebo cuti
roblje puni brodove Afrikanci
Podne, sunce, pustinja zvizde meci
s one strane ratnici crne puti
u grobu se prevrcu mrtvi preci
Afrika su pucevi i regruti
Ref.
Afrika, zemlja snjegova
Afrika, zemlja robova
Afrika, zemlja snjegova
Afrika, zemlja lavova
Afriku su jahali svi po redu
Afrika me podsjeca, na glad i bijedu
Afrika je pustinja, dzungla, trnje
isti zakon za pse i za crnje
Ref. 4x
