(also spelled Senzenina, {{lang-en|What Have We Done?}})[1] is a South African anti‐apartheid folk song. The Xhosa and Zulu language song is commonly sung at funerals, demonstrations and in churches.[1][2] Activist Duma Ndlovu compared the influence of "Senzeni Na?" to that of the American protest song, "We Shall Overcome."[3] The song has been around at least since the 1950s, and it reached the height of its popularity during the 1980s.[1] The origins of the song are unclear. Zimbabwean poet Albert Nyathi wrote a song by the same title, "Senzeni Na?" on the day that activist Chris Hani died.[4] The song was among several songs of a more mournful nature that became popular among anti-apartheid activists in the 1960s. The song repeats the line "What have we done" a number of times, which musician Sibongile Khumalo has described as giving the listener a sense of desolation.[5] LyricsThere does not seem to be one universally agreed on set of lyrics. Below are two versions, the bottom one being the more aggressive of the two: Appearances in the Western worldWhile best known in South Africa, "Senzeni Na?" has gained some popularity overseas. The song was featured in the anti‐apartheid film The Power of One[8] as well as during the opening credits of the film In My Country, and a recording of the song as sung at the funeral of Steve Biko can be heard at the end of the album version of "Biko" by Peter Gabriel.[9] The music was used for an adaptation of the hymn "When I Survey the Wondrous Cross" by Isaac Watts in the Mennonite A Worship Book.[10] In Kim Stanley Robinson's Mars Trilogy there is a city called Senzeni Na (founded by the Japanese). Part 7 of the book is also titled "Senzeni Na."[11] References1. ^1 2 {{cite news|title='Senzeni Na' sung as an anthem of the struggle|first=Jimmy|last=Matyu|newspaper=The Herald Online|date=November 1, 2006|url=http://www.theherald.co.za/herald/2006/11/01/cols/hcols.htm|accessdate=May 31, 2010}} 2. ^{{cite book |last=Pieterse|first=Cosmo|authorlink=Cosmo Pieterse|editor1-first=Willem|editor1-last=Campschreur|editor2-first=Joost|editor2-last=Divenda|title=Culture in Another South Africa|url=http://www.sahistory.org.za/pages/library-resources/online%20books/culture-anotherSA/culture-another-index.htm|accessdate=May 31, 2010|date=June 1989|publisher=Olive Branch Press|isbn=978-0-940793-36-1|chapter=Towards a Survey: A reflection on South African poetry|chapterurl=http://www.sahistory.org.za/pages/library-resources/online%20books/culture-anotherSA/towards-survey.htm}} 3. ^{{cite journal|last=Jorritsma|first=Marie|year=|title=Songs for Freedom: Amandla!
