Lumumba lyrics
by Miriam Makeba
Look -
Life's golden threads are growing
A child is springing in spirit
Soul and mind
Each day brings more joy
Oh Lumumba
That's my little boy
I named him after the great man (yeah)
Who fought for the liberty of the Congo
Patrice Lumumba
A-ha O Lumumba
May his spirit live on
In my little boy
Each day he brings more joy
That's my little boy
O Lumumba, O Lumumba
O-ho Lumumba hmmm-hmm Lumumba
I named him after the great man
Who fought for the liberty of the Congo
Patrice Lumumba
O Lumumba
May his spirit live on (yeah)
In my little boy
(O Lumumba)
That's my little boy
(O Lumumba)
Each day he brings more joy
O Lumumba
