166   Liwa Laphakade




[V1]
Liwa lamaphakade, Wakrazulwa ngenxa yam;
Mandizifihle kuWe, Ndiphiliswe ngegazi
Elaphum’ ephangweni, Lindihlam’ esonweni.

[V2]
Ndikhohliwe kukwenza Okuyalwe ngumthetho;
Nangani ndingayeki Ukuzama ndilila,
Andingecimi sono, Ndosinda ngaWe wedwa.

[V3]
Ndiza ndingaphethe nto, Ndithe nca eKrusini;
Ndingoze, ndambathise; Ndikholiwe, ndincede;
Ndingcolile, Mthombo wam, ndihlambe ‘ze ndingafi.

[V4]
Ndisahleli nje apha, Akucim’ amehlo am,
ndophumla engcwabeni, Ndilindele umgwebo,
Liwa lamaphakade, Mandizifihle kuWe.
