This song is sung by black people. The boers
are the racist whites, and the blacks want to kill
them.
 Lyrics
• Here is a message from Joe Slovo.
Comrade units survive.
Street committes, survive.
Kill the boers – our fathers.
Kill the boers – young man.
Communist party – victory.
Joe Slovo – our father.
Life in exile.
Tambo in exile.

 HOPE SONG

This is the song of the football world cup. It will be
celebrated in South Africa this summer. I think this
football cup will be good against the aparthaid and racist
too, and help to advance South Africa in unity.
