Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Uthando lwakho luyangegama
Lungicoba amathambo ngiphele nya
Ungiyengile ngayengeka
Ngisothandweni moyogcwele
(Refrain)

Ngiyaligaxa lolucu moyogcwele
Aw ngiyakuthanda ngehliziyo yami yonke

Uyisithandwa somphefumlo wami
Ngisothandweni moyogcwele

Ngisothandweni
Ngisothandweni
Ngisothandweni moyogcwele
Ungilindile, ngahluleka
Ngisothandweni ngunaphakade

Uthando lwakho luyangegama
Lungicob' amathambo ngiphele nya
Ungiyengile ngayengeka
Ngisothandweni moyogcwele
(Refrain)

Ngisothandweni
Ngisothandweni
Ngisothandweni moyogcwele

Ungilindile, ngahluleka
Ngisothandweni ngunaphakade
