The song asks "who will look after this child, for it is truly without parents?" eMarabini is sung with a new meaning today as South Africa's orphan population continues to increase due to the HIV/AIDS epidemic. The feeling behind this song is driven by a sense Of hope rather than despair; as it was sung to win past struggles, it is now sung to overcome present struggles as well."
