Asikathali

for SA Choir and piano

Inspired by the text of an African Freedom Song, I composed my own melody and arranged it for young voices.

It doesn’t matter if you jail us, we are free and kept alive by hope...
Our struggle's hard, so very hard
But victory
will restore our lands into our hands!
