Zvinonongova mumoyo rwendo rwembwa
Mwana uye Ruvarashe
Zvinonongova mumoyo rwendo rwembwa
Wakandigumbura Ruvarashe
Wakazondipa chitsvambe pamoyo
Wakandigumbura Ruvarashe
Wakazondipa chitsvambe pamoyo
Kana kudya zvinonaka handimbokwanisa
Ndikazvifunga nyoka dzinorira
Kana kudya zvinonaka handimbokwanisa
Ndakakutora uri wenhamo Ruvarashe
Apa wazondigumbura chenjera ndave mhandu yako
Ndakange ndazvipira kuti ndichate newe
Nhasi zvazokuomera neniwo ndave mhandu yako
Ndakakutora uri wenhamo Ruvarashe
Apa wazondigumbura chenjera ndave mhandu yako
Ndakakutora uri wenhamo Ruvarashe
Apa wazondigumbura chenjera ndave mhandu yako
Ndakange ndazvipira kuti ndichate newe
Nhasi zvazokuomera neniwo ndave mhandu yako
Ndakange ndazvipira kuti ndichate newe

Enda zvako Ruvarashe
Handimbozvigaya kana kuzvikendenga
Enda zvako Ruvarashe
Handimbozvigaya kana kuzvikendenga
Enda zvako Ruvarashe
Handimbozvigaya kana kuzvikendenga

You made me feel ashamed, Ruvarashe

Sarura wako anotamba zvaunoda ka
Choose yours who play how you like
Ndakasarudza wangu anotamba zvandinodawo
I will also chose mine who plays how i like
Ambuya vangu vanotamba nevezera ravo
My grandmother olays with her peers
Iwe tamba tione chisikana chezera rangu
You play, let's see our young girls dance
Dhiya wangu uchindidaka woitavo zvandinoda
My love, hug me, that's what I want
Kwete kungopa wese wese rudo rwaunondipa ini
Not just giving love to everyone, but to me only
Ndiri wako inini dhiya ndinokuda inini sweetie
I am yours my love, I love you my sweetie
Ndikakufunga ndinonzwa moyo neshungu
When I think of you, I feel both happiness and pain
Kune zvakawanda zvinotitadzisa
There are many things that bother us
Kuti tiwirirane nekuda kwevavengi mudiwa
Let's unite despite the community's opposition
