348   Nakuba Namhla Thina Siphilile




[V1]
Nakuba Namhla Thina Siphilile,
Singathi ngomso sibe sesifile.
Imini zokuphila asizazi;
Imini yokubhubha asiyazi.

[V2]
Ukufa kuyabhaqa kwa kudala:
Angabi yedwa onokwaluphala:
Abatsha nabo bayabhaqwa futhi;
Nangeli lixa kungafika kuthi.

[V3]
Yivani,nani, booni, nikhumbule,
Ilizwi eli niliphula-phule:
Nibuye noonke ezonweni zenu,
Kubek' ithemba ekufeni kwenu
