For how long

By Nqobile Mafu

For how long shall we remain silence?
For how long shall they kill our prophets?
How long! How long
For how long shall we be still sitting?
Whilst others are demonstrating

For how long shall we kill each other?
Our brothers are still detained
Houses are burned, shops are closed
People run up and down in the streets of kwaBulawayo.

When will we stop crying, suffering and struggling?
Kuzekubenini (for how long)
Yes for how long! How long
