"Namibia is responsible for the largest slaughter of wildlife on earth. Each year, 85 000 baby seals are violently beaten to death for their fur and a further 6 000 adult bulls are shot at point blank range. The Cape Fur seal is a threatened species and is listed on Appendix II of CITES."
I wrote this song and created the video as a special dedication to the tens of thousands of innocent seals which are ruthlessly killed every year during the Namibian seal slaughter. It is my sincere wish that this cruel practice will come to an end forever and I wholeheartedly support any efforts to make this wish a realization.
LET US ALL UNITE TO PROTEST AGAINST THE SEAL SLAUGHTER WITH HEART AND SOUL.

"Seals of Nam"
(Music and lyrics -- Louise du Toit -- 16.02.2012)
There is nothing beautiful
In hearing babies cry
As the heavy clubs come down
Like stones from the sky
There is nothing wondrous
When every day begins
With tens of thousands baby seals
Murdered for their skins
Refrain:
Can you endure the pain?
Watch them die in vain?
Oh will you raise a forceful voice
Against the killing rain?
"Seals of Nam" is there
To make the world aware
That we can stop this genocide
If we'd only dare.
At the rosy crack of dawn
From the first day of July
The cubs will run in fear
Fighting not to die
But we can be their voices
Against this senseless crime
Uniting to abolish it
Until the end of time.
Refrain:
Can you endure their pain?
Watch them die in vain?
Or will you raise a forceful voice
Against the clubbing rain?
"Seals of Nam" is there
To make the world aware
That we can stop this genocide
If we'd only dare.
If we'd only dare.
