UMTHANDAZO WOKUHLAZIYA UKUJONGA

Nkosi!
Hayi, ndiya kuxhathisa
ukuzilahlela okuzayo,
kwaye andizukubaleka.

Andizukuya kwinqaba yophondo lwendlovu,
kude nabantu,
ukubalekela eli lizwe ngengcinga.

Ndifuna ukuhlala embindini weli hlabathi, njengoko linjalo,
kulo mhlaba apho sizabalaza khona.

Ndifuna ukuhlala endaweni yam.
Akunjalo, kunjalo.

Yintoni enokuthi,
phakathi kwesi siphithiphithi,
ukukhanya okuncinci kwesazela,
ukukhanya okuqaqambileyo okuya kuthabatha ubusuku
Kwaye, Thixo wam,
Kuya kufuneka ndiyizalisekisile
endadalelwa yona.

Kufuneka ndinike ubungqina,
kwaye uthi, kwaye ubonise amadoda
ukuba kukho enye into ngaphandle kobumnyama,
yahlukile ekukhaleni koloyiko,
yahlukile kwezi ntetho zivuthayo,
ukusuka kuhlaselo.
