Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't love me baby (Angisakuthanda baby)
Ngicela ungangithembi (Ndicela ukungakuthembi)
Don't trust me baby (Angisakuthemba baby)
Ngoba angifuni usule inyembezi zingakhishwanga nguwe (Nguwe)
Ngoba angifuni usule inyembezi zingakhishwanga nguwe
Sengonakele vele ukhohlwe yimi babay
It's better if I let you go (No)
Mina angiku deserve no (No)
Ngeke ngikufihle ngizokutshela straight
Iqiniso so that you know (No no no)
Nginamadimoni ami mina and ngithatha ulet go (Ngithath' ulet go)
It's not you yizimo engdlule kuzo
Ngicel' ukuphila nawo ngedwa amadimoni ami
Thungafeli into ongayazi uyithole ukhala ngenxayami
Ngifuna uhlale wazi wena uyohlala usenhlizweni yami
I wanna see you happy even if it's not with me
Ngicela ungangthandi (Wo no)
Don't love me baby (Angisakuthanda baby)
Ngicela ungangithembi (Ndicela ukungakuthembi)
Don't trust me baby (Angisakuthemba baby)
Ngoba angifuni usule inyembezi zingakhishwanga nguwe (Nguwe)
Ngoba angifuni usule inyembezi zingakhishwanga nguwe
Ndiyavuma wonakele andiyongilosi mna
Ndilwa nengaphakathi yam
Ndilwa nezam ingxaki ukbasingancedana
Siphakamisane phezulu (Le phezulu le)
Siphakamisane phezulu (Le phezulu le)
Ngoba kodwa ndiyakuthanda
Ndizomamele andizuhoya imizwa yam
Ngicela ungangthandi (Wo no)
Don't love me baby (Angisakuthanda baby)
Ngicela ungangithembi (Ndicela ukungakuthembi)
Don't trust me baby (Angisakuthemba baby)
Ngoba angifuni usule inyembezi zingakhishwanga nguwe (Nguwe)
Ngoba angifuni usule inyembezi zingakhishwanga nguwe
The song "Don't Love Me" by Sjava is about a man who is asking his lover not to love him because he is not worthy of her love. He begins by asking her not to love him and not to trust him either because he is not willing to bring her to tears. He does not want her to cry for him. He tells her that he has been selfish and that he knows he does not deserve her love. He would rather let her go and find someone better than him. He acknowledges that he has some demons that he needs to deal with and does not want to hold her back.
The chorus repeats the request for the lover not to love him and not to trust him. He tells her that he accepts that he is not an angel and admits to being flawed. He tells her that he has reached the point where he knows that he needs to let her go so that she can be happy even if it's not with him. He admits to loving her and that he will miss her, but he knows he has to set her free.
In the final verse, he accepts that he has made mistakes in the relationship and that he is going through some tough times. He asks that they rise above their problems and remain strong, but he still maintains that he is not worthy of her love.

@MissCircle.123.
My ex baby daddy just sent me this song today. He says he loves me and is asking for a second chance. Imagine waking up to love, a faithful partner who will be a provider and waking up to such great music for the whole of your life. Wishful thinking. That's one thing that we always bonded over. Good music.
