Petronella
Dr Malinga feat. Josta Lyrics

Petronella
The song is titled 'Petronella'

Petronella. Uyangi user uyandi user uyangi user uyangi user (lingas entertainment)
The first verse starts by repeating 'Petronella' and introducing the record label, Lingas Entertainment. The repeated line 'uyangi user uyandi user uyangi user uyangi user' seems to have no real meaning but is used to create a catchy rhythm.

uyangi user uyangi user uyangi user (Petronella) X10
The chorus is made up of the repeated phrase 'uyangi user' - which appears to be nonsense - and the song's title, Petronella. This chorus is repeated ten times.

Izolo, hey, no phamb'kwayi zolo
The second verse opens with a greeting and a comment about the previous night. 'Phamb'kwayi zolo' is likely a reference to a party or event. The line may indicate that the singer is still feeling the effects of that night.

Ngithe zong'bona (aw'zanga, hambisi pali)
The singer is saying that they are looking for someone, but that person is not present. The rest of the line is unclear, but may reference someone missing or being lost.

kodwa mang'rholile ngibona ngawe (jika jika nathi)
The singer has spotted 'you' (likely Petronella) but is confused or surprised by something. 'Jika Jika nathi' is a Zulu expression for hustling together, possibly indicating that the mystery surrounding the situation is a shared experience.

Uy'moto entshontshimali Petronella
This line seems to reference Petronella's character, saying that she is a 'moto' which means 'fire' and that she is full of energy and drive. 'Entshontshimali' may mean 'money' or 'wealth' in Zulu, implying that Petronella is successful or ambitious.

uyangi user uPetronella
This line repeats the chorus with the addition of 'Petronella' to the repeated nonsense phrase.

sagcina nini na? sagcina nini? sagcina nini na? cabuzana?
This interlude may be a call-and-response between the singer and the listener. 'Sagcina nini na?' is Zulu for 'when will you come back?' while 'cabuzana' may be a slang term for 'messing around' or 'relaxing'.

njalo mangithi ngiyak'qabuza wena, cabuza imala
The singer is addressing 'you' again, saying that they are always asking you something and telling you to relax. 'Imala' is a Zulu term for money, suggesting that the singer may be telling Petronella to enjoy her wealth.

my mother kissing me goodnight
This line comes out of nowhere and seems to have no connection to the rest of the song. It suggests a personal memory or experience for the singer, but it's unclear why it's included in the lyrics.
