We celebrate a legend today
Reuben Sithagu, let’s go!
Nwali believes, yeah the vision is clear
Even when they try to doubt, we have no fear
From the house of Balela, we rise above
We bring the energy, we bring the love
Ngwekhulu, Davhana, we answer the call
We are blessed, yeah the spirit is bright
We keep it moving all through the night
Viva Reuben Sithagu, viva!
Yeah, we celebrate you, you’re a winner
Viva Reuben Sithagu, viva!
Let the rhythm flow, let the party begin
When you cry, we hear, we feel the sound
Reuben Sithagu, the king of the town
Sundani is here, today and tomorrow
We leave behind all the pain and the sorrow
ANC says he’s the one, let him lead the way
Put the picture of Sithagu on display
All the people gather, saying he’s the man
Working for the future, we have a plan
(Eish! Yebo!)
Viva Reuben Sithagu, viva!
Viva Reuben Sithagu, viva!
Let the rhythm flow, let the party begin
When you cry, we hear, we feel the sound
Reuben Sithagu, the king of the town
Can you feel the drum? (Log drum rolling)
Can you feel the bass? (Deep and heavy)
Reuben Sithagu, winning the race
From the city streets to the mountain side
With Reuben Sithagu, we turn the tide
So raise your glass, let the music play
Everything is looking good for the day
With the team together, we can never lose
Reuben Sithagu is the one we choose
(Asambe! Let's go!)
Viva Reuben Sithagu, viva!
Yeah, we celebrate you, you’re a winner
Viva Reuben Sithagu, viva!
Let the rhythm flow, let the party begin
When you cry, we hear, we feel the sound
Reuben Sithagu, the king of the town
Viva Reuben Sithagu, viva!
Sho! Reuben Sithagu, viva!
