5   Kude Kungakanani neKhaya




[V1]
Kuse kude na ekhaya? Ndabuza umlindi wathi,
Ubusuku buya phela, Kufuphi ukusa;
Ngako ungabi sakhala, kodwa khawuleza uhambe
Wofika ekukhanyeni okungapheliyo.

[V2]
Ndabuza kumphumi-mkhosi; nantsi impendulo yakhe
Ndiza kulwa ngesibindi, ikrele likhanya
Ngako ungabi sakhala, ncekelela edabini
Umvuzo uya kubakho Xa woyisile.

[V3]
Ndibuzile endalweni, Zonke zitsho ngazwi linye
Ixesha liya gqibela, Likufuph’ ikhaya
Ngako ungabi sakhala, iziboniso ziyanda
Jikelele zimemeza, Iyeza iNkosi

[V4]
Ekhaya akuse kude! Yinkumbulo entle leyo Cwayita mhambi. Zisule inyembezi ezo;
Ngako ungabi sakhala, Kuba sohlangana khona
Iinkathazo ziphelile phaya ezulwini.
