[Verse 1]
The sun is shining, the children laughing, playing
Full of dreams to find
They all remind me, when I was a little boy
Full of life and pride
They look so peaceful
(Moshanyana weso bo' itumele)
So sweet and graceful
(Ngwana weso bo' ithabise)
They're all so hopeful
(Moshanyana weso bo' itumele)
And there is no need for crying
No need for fighting
[Chorus]
It's time
(Ithabise)
And this is meant to be your day, shine!
(Ithabise)
And in your heart you'll know it's time
(Ithabise)
For you take your place
(Ithabise)
[Verse 2]
Sometimes I wonder why people always seem
To turn around and lose their way
Look out your window, be grateful for this day
And make a change, it's okay
To be peaceful
(Moshanyana weso bo' itumele)
And to be hopeful
(Ngwana weso bo' ithabise)
Sweet and graceful
(Moshanyana weso bo' itumele)
And there is no need for crying
No need for fighting
[Chorus]
It's time
(Whoa, ithabise)
And this is meant to be your day, shine!
(Whoa, ithabise)
And in your heart you'll know it's time
(Whoa, ithabise, ithabise)
For you take your place
(Whoa, ithabise)
[Bridge]
Tsatsi lahao lefihlile
(Ithabise, ithabise)
Tsatsi lahao lefihlile
(Ithabise, ithabise)
Mmm, hey
Ithabise
Whoa
Whoa
Ithabise
Ithabise
