A Great mountain has collapsed
That which shielded us from the scorching rays of the sun
That very mountain that broke the speed of approaching winds
The very same mountain that provided and of which the people fed
A great oasis to the people stranded in the desert is no more
A source of inspiration to the young who seek knowledge
Sound the biggest vuvuzela available
Yes we need to reach out to the universe herself
One of the greatest treasure she gave and now has taken
Sound the big horn to the universe
We only ask that she keeps safe our treasure
That which served its purpose well
That which made the people proud
That which is no more yet lives on in our hearts and soul.

Sound the biggest vuvuzela available
