Lyrics
……………….
………… V1………….
My son returned home in a black body bag
From the far north east on a cold watery morn
They left me his boots, his khaki
And a note he had scribbled in blood:
……………………………
…….Pre chorus ……..
Mother O Mother, indeed I was scared
The night never died, the rain was a foe
They came upon us like shadows and ghosts
And one after one, we fell like Spartans
…………………………..
………Chorus……..
Sambi…sa
our deaths are tell-tales of our fates
(x2)
Sambi…sa
Remember your fallen Heroes
………………………….
……..V2…. …………
My son returned home in a black body bag
From Boronu state on a cold watery morn
They left me his watch, his pictures
And a note he had scribbled in blood:
…………………………….

………….. V3 ………….
Pray for my soul and pray for our foes
Care for my sons, console my wife…
I defended my fatherland
I fought with all my heart
I fought to come home alive,
But sadly the grave is my lot
Sambisa was unkind, sambisa was unfair.
.
Here are my words, scribbled in red,
Pray for your son, pray for this land
……………………..
…….. Chorus ……..
