Siyahamba (We Are Marching), written by Andries Van Tonder is a South African song, sung in the language of Zulu.

Siyahamb’ ekukhanyeni kwenkos’ – We are marching in the light of God.

This “folk” piece belongs to the people of South Africa. It is part of their culture, their struggle, and their unity. There have been many westerners who have tried to put this “live” work onto manuscript.

Since the piece has been passed on from generation to generation, it is not static; notes, rhythms, and exactness are less important than singing with truth passion, spirit, joy, determiniation, and unity. This, above all else, is what makes Siyahamba a special piece, and one worth sharing. Please enjoy and share with the world!
