Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ushukuthi ngeke ngithole ofana nawe
Vele that's the whole point ngingatholi ofana nawe vele

Yazi uyay'khohlisa ma uyitshel' ukuthi angeke
Ngiphinde ngithole ofana nawe lo
Yazi uyay'khohlisa ma uyitshel' ukuthi angeke
Ngiphinde ngithole ofana nawe
Wena ukhohlwa intoyodwa lokho owakubona kimi
Kwakuchaza ngithi awukuthathanga
Basakbona nabanye
Ukhohlwa intoyodwa lokho owakubona kimi
Kwakuchaza ngithi awukuthathanga
Basakbona nabanye

Ngiyazi ukhaliswa yini
Ukhaliswa hukuthi lothando ebengiknika lona seluzoya komunye
Ngiyazi ukhaliswa yini
Ukhaliswa hukuthi ma ngithi I love you ozathi I love you too It won't be you
Ngiyazi ukhaliswa yini wena
Ukhaliswa hukuthi lempatho ebengikunika yona seyizoya komunye
Uyabona okukukhalisa kahulu
Kuthi ma ungibona ngijabulile nzobe ngingajabiliswanga nguwe
Okukukhalisa kakhulu kunako konke
Kuthi inkonzo yasebusuku isizofaka omunye umfundisi
Uzenzile akakhalelwa
Kukhalelwa uzumekile (Uzenzile)

Yazi uyay'khohlisa ma uyitshel' ukuthi angeke
Ngiphinde ngithole ofana nawe lo
Yazi uyay'khohlisa ma uyitshel' ukuthi angeke
Ngiphinde ngithole ofana nawe lo

Wena ukhohlwa intoyodwa lokho owakubona kimi
Kwakuchaza ngithi awukuthathanga
Basakbona nabanye
Ukhohlwa intoyodwa lokho owakubona kimi
Kwakuchaza ngithi awukuthathanga
Basakbona nabanye

Mina ngiyayibonga inkosi
Ngokuthula umthwalo isus' idimoni empilweni yami
Phinde futhi ngibong' idlozi
Ngokumvulamehlo lususe ischitho empilweni yam
Yazi bengingazi
Ukuthi uthando yinto emnandi kanjena
Leslima besingfihlele olukhulu
Bengingazi ukuthi mina
Muntu ukhala uma edumele
Bengingayazi i tears of joy manje sengiyazi
Kuthi ukujabula kuyatshintshana
Buka manje kuhlek' ubani
Ngaktshela ngathi okwenzakala ebunyameni
Kusasa kuyovela obala

Yazi uyay'khohlisa ma uyitshel' ukuthi angeke
Ngiphinde ngithole ofana nawe lo
Yazi uyay'khohlisa ma uyitshel' ukuthi angeke
Ngiphinde ngithole ofana nawe lo

Wena ukhohlwa intoyodwa lokho owakubona kimi
Kwakuchaza ngithi awukuthathanga
Basakbona nabanye
Ukhohlwa intoyodwa lokho owakubona kimi




Kwakuchaza ngithi awukuthathanga
Basakbona nabanye

Others have seen it


Ngiyazi ukhaliswa yini
I know I'm being played


Ukhaliswa hukuthi lothando ebengiknika lona seluzoya komunye
I'm being played with the love that I gave you, saying that it will never be matched by someone else

I thank the Lord


Ngokuthula umthwalo isus' idimoni empilweni yami
For carrying the burden that was like a demon in my life


Phinde futhi ngibong' idlozi
I give thanks again to my ancestors


Ngokumvulamehlo lususe ischitho empilweni yam
For opening my eyes and removing the darkness in my life


Leslima besingfihlele olukhulu
These scars that we thought were big


Bengingazi ukuthi mina
I didn't know that


Muntu ukhala uma edumele
A person cries when they have won


Bengingayazi i tears of joy manje sengiyazi
I didn't know about tears of joy, but now I know


Kuthi ukujabula kuyatshintshana
Celebration changes things


Buka manje kuhlek' ubani
Look now, who is shining


Ngaktshela ngathi okwenzakala ebunyameni
I thought it was all over in the darkness


Kusasa kuyovela obala
Tomorrow the truth will reveal itself

on Eweni

Ukuk'thanda kwam ngathi kuzongholela ek'feni
My love feels for you feels like will be the death of me

Ang'saboni noma kwonakala ngwela eweni
I don't know if it will end or if it will last

Bathi ukuk'thanda kwam ngathi kuzongholela ek'feni
They say my love will last forever

Ngisho abafowethu
I'm telling my friends

Mabengbonisa ngawe
They should show you

Ang'bambeki, Ang'khuzeki
I'm not shaken, I'm not moving

Ngisho ekhaya mabengbonisa ngawe ang'bambeki
At home they should show you, I am not moved

Nangiklobolela inhloso yodwa
I have one purpose

Nganthanda ukuma kwakho
To stand by you

Ngangingazitsheli ukuthi koze kube
I won't be impatient, it will happen

Ngachazwa ukuma kwakho
I am encouraged to stand by you

Ngangingazitsheli ukuthi koze kube kanje
I won't be impatient, it will happen like this

Ngangingazitsheli ukuthi koze kufike nje
I won't be impatient, it will arrive soon

Namhlanje ungumkam Umkami
Today you are a king, my king

Ngangingazitsheli ukuthi kuyoze kufike leskhathi
I won't be impatient, it will arrive at the right time

Ang'kafuni ukuzwa lutho
I don't want to hear anything

Beng'nga'funga ukufa komntu
I wasn't thinking about someone dying

Ngang'ngak qhuba ukusuka kothul'
I didn't run away from home

Ngiyafunga ngiyagomela
I think and confirm

Makakuhluphe umuntu kulokhu
Someone will be hurt by this

Lalingaphuma ukhuni kumuntu
It hurts someone like a spear

Mayengacuphu uchuku umuntu
It doesn't matter how strong someone is

Wami engimthandayo oh yeah
My love, yes I love him

Yena ulubambo
He is my pillar
