Imphi

The invader with his guns, cannon and horses
Were fought by spear wielding Zulu warriors
For a moment the modern men were defeated
By warriors using ancient weapons and fire
The world turned upside down, for a moment
But with every loss, replacements poured in
Modernity's weapons killed the ancient ire
Slaughtering so many anonymous lives
For a right to rule a land, a Colonial Empire
To bring wealth and civilization, to you
Never another people
