Mfaz Omnyama- Ngisebenzile Mama Lyrics
Wemama wemama wemama! (Woman woman woman!)
Awbuki’ inkomo zami ng’sebenzile (look at my cows[herd], i have worked hard)
Aw’bheki inkomo zami (look at my cows)
Wemam’ uyangikak’ ungbiza ngevila (mother you’re insulting me, calling me lazy)
Inkomo zam’ ngsebenzile (my cows, i have done well)
(chorus)
Lomama uyangithuka (this woman insults me)
Uthi ngiy’vila(calling me lazy)
Aw’bheki inkomo zami (look at my cows)
Ngsebenzile (i have done well)
Wemama uyangithuka
Uthi ngiy’vila
Aw’bheki inkomo zami
Ngsebenzile (x2)
Wemama uyangithuka
Uthi ngiy’vila
Aw’buki inkomo zami
Ngsebenzile
(speech in Xhosa)
Kwa!
Hayi k’hamba kwesinyane mfondini
Aw’mamele kakuhle mfondini ukuthi ndthin’ aphakuwe
Esawamfo kambixabi
Ndisacel’ukuk’memeza awusabele laph’Ekapa
Ndiyak’bingelela ndithi sawubona mtuwakuthi
Mfowakakuhle
Skumb’esimnyama sakuthi xawusbambe ngomhlobo
(Chorus) x repeat
(Speech)
(Chorus)
