181   Silindele Ngokulinda




[V1]
Ixa lokufika asilaz’ Kungaba kuse busuku
Kungaba kungexa lentsasa, iz’ ithi I-Nkosi kuthi
Masilindele sithandaza, zivuth’ izibane zethu;
Aze athi-ke akufika Simhlangabeze ngovuyo.

[C]
Sikulindele, Sikukhangele; Sikulindele, Sisemi sikulindele.

[V2]
Ndicinga ngolo sizi lwakhe, Athe ngoko wasithenga;
Washiya lomabhotwe mahle, Esiza kufel’ aboni.
Ndicinga kuya kumkholisa, Xa abo bathengwa bakhe
Bathemba ukubuya kwakhe, Basoloko bemkhangele

[C]
Sikulindele, Sikukhangele; Sikulindele, Sisemi sikulindele.

[V3]
O, Yesu wena Mhlawuleli wam, Uyazi ndiyalithanda
Ithemba lokukubona kwam, Ndibekho x’ ubuliswayo
Kwabanye woza ungu-Mgwebi, Kwabaya kukubaleka
Woba ungu-Mhlobo kum kanye, Ndihleli ndikukhangele

[C]
Sikulindele, Sikukhangele; Sikulindele, Sisemi sikulindele.
