O wena obona izinyembezi zami zigeleza njengemvula engapheli

Ziphuphuma emehlweni ami, ngenkathi ukugula kubonakala emzimbeni wami

Ungamangali, noma ngabe senginjengezinsalela ezingaphiliyo

Inyamazane enkangala, phakathi kwezihlahla ze-ban nentaba

Ivumele ukuchithwa kwegazi lami ngezinyanga ezingcwele

Mangala kunalokho ngesimo sami, ngoba angizange nanini

Ngazaba izinhlupheko, ngisho noma zingelulela izandla zazo kimi

Kodwa uthando lungivimbe izindlebe, namazwi ami abe yize

Isiphetho sishaye ibhubesi ngamehlo enkonyane yempala

O mhlali wasenkangala, woza uzohlenga ohlala ehlathini!

Sithandwa sami sihlasele inhliziyo yami ngemicibisholo yokubheka kwaso

Singishiya ngizulazula, ngingenaso isiqondiso

Lapho singicibishela futhi umcibisholo waso wantshantsha ukubekezela kwami

Ngasilandula isilonda ngawufihla umcibisholo enhliziyweni yami

Ngoba izilonda ezibangelwa isithandwa azingizwisi buhlungu

Lapho inyanga yami ivela, inyanga yezulu iyacasha

Isikhathi eside ngicabanga futhi ngingalali ngenxa yothando lwakhe

Umphefumulo wami ungowakhe, negazi lami, nokuzwa nokubona kwami

O wena ongisola ngokumthanda, uthando luyisiphetho

Ukube lokhu kulangazelela bekukuqedile, ubungeke usole noma ukhuze
