The Betrayer
by The Revolutionary Peasants and Workers of the Mau Mau Resistance
Long ago the British came upon us
With weapons of war
And they successfully fought us
And drove us out and took our land.
Go away, go away, you whites,
The time is soon coming
When you will be crying for mercy.
There is a great wailing
In the land of the African people
Because of land hunger.
The wise and even the foolish,
Who among you does not see
The overcrowding in our land?
You whites are like beasts in sheep's clothing
