Lindiwe Mkhize:
From the day we arrive on the planet
And, blinking, step into the sun
There’s more to see than can ever be seen
More to do than can ever be done

There’s far too much to take in here
More to find than can ever be found
But the sun rolling high
Through the sapphire sky
Keeps great and small on the endless round

It’s the circle of life
(Balek’ ingonyam’i ya gale’!) Run, the lion will attack!
And it moves us all
(Ingonyama nengwe wema!) The lion and the leopard, oh, what a sight!
Through despair and hope
Through faith and love
Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the circle
The circle of life
