Ibwelele (let's bring it back)
Ibwelele (for all my people everywhere)
Ibwelele (this one is for you)
Bring it back again...
Bring it back again...
Bring it back again...
Bring it back again...
Bring it back again...
Bring it back again...
Bring it back again...

Niuzenikoni ve vinalubana instead yo manga apa mufuno pwanya
Instead yo buildin'a munzako mufuna panka eve achuchako kutika
Niona che Bantu bokwiya chikhoko jealous finti na fear
Please simailako my dear niliko na idea nifuna

Ibwelele (ija joy mmutima)
Ibwelele (ija smile pa fyenshi)
Ibwelele (ija tau twezo vina)
Bring it back again...
Bring it back again...
Bring it back again...
Bring it back again...
Bring it back again...
Bring it back again...
(Ehe ba kaira lekeni naine nkwatemo touch panono fye)
Bring it back again...

Banamayo mumayanda patience yalipwamo
Inga wabakalifyakofye ati nalapyamo
Shes threatening violence domestic ine mbafye silent
Haaa mudala ndala no nshibata kuti wafwa nokanaishiba ka
We was a match made in heaven before imulomo naba bufi came in
Palya twaliko mu love innocent
Walemonamo dove lelo naba shani shrub[?] Ala

Bring it back again...
Bring it back again...
Bring it back again...

Umupashi wa love and unity
Everybody equal opportunity
Umupashi uwa icicetekelo not inshita shonse fyebo negativity
Ija spirit yo velana olo opinion isiyana
Ija spirit yo gwilana pamozi tipangefuture yabana

Ibwelele (ija Zambia yaku church)
Ibwelele (ija Zambia yaulemu)
Ibwelele (ija Zambia yogwilana ba Zambia)
Bring it back again...
Bring it back again...
Bring it back again...
Bring it back again... (na Afcon trophy)
Bring it back again...
Bring it back again...
Bring it back again...

You know Zambia is known for peace, love and friendly people man
I just wanna bring that spirit back
Mama mama Zambia
Mama mama Zambia
Mama mama Zambia




Again imwe (again)
Bring it back again
