One By One

"One By One" is a song written by Lebo M first featured on the Rhythm of the Pride Lands CD. The song was later used to open the second act of The Lion King on Broadway.
The song was used for an animated short for an unproduced Fantasia movie that was eventually cancelled. So, it was used as a bonus feature attached with the 2004 DVD release of The Lion King II: Simba's Pride.
==Lyrics==
Ibambeni njala bakithi Hold on tight, my people
Ninga dinwa Don't get weary
Ninga phelelwa nga mandla Don't lose your strength
Siya ba bona We can see
Bebe fun' ukusi qeda They wanted to hold us back
One by One
Ngeke ba lunge They will not succeed
One by One
Sizo nqoba We will win
One by One
Ngeke ba lunge They will not succeed
One by One
Ibambeni njala bakithi Hold on tight, my people
Ninga dinwa Don't get weary
Ninga phelelwa nga mandla Don't lose your strength
Siya ba bona We can see
Bebe fun' ukusi qeda They wanted to hold us back
One by One
Ngeke ba lunge They will not succeed
One by One
Sizo nqoba We will win
(Repeat)
Ngoba thina Because
Siya zazi We know who we are
(Repeat)
Ibala lami The color of my skin
Elimnyama That is dark
Ndiya zidla I'm proud
Ngalo Of it
Ibala lami The color of my skin
Elimnyama That is dark
Ndiza kufa I will die
Nalo With it
(Repeat)
Kumnandi Oh yes
Kwelakakith Eafrica It's beautiful in Africa
