Bayi thathile yam’ phone!
Aba zankhe bafune kwazi ngiphila ngayo.
Aba zange bafunu kwazi mina angisebenzi.
Aba zange bangenzelo kuhle, bangi tjhiye ngikhala.
Namanje kusehla zoni zinyembezi.
Abotsots’ abamfiselu munt’ okuhle.
Abaphili ngonyembeza, njalo bona bajabula thina masilahlekelwa.
Ngoyithanda kanjani mpilwe mhlabeni kunje?
Esibathandayo, bayasi lahlekela, sekunzima ngitjho nokuphefumula.
Zinhlungu zom’hlaba zipheli.
Abotsotsi bayi tsotsile lene yami mpilo.
Abotsotsi abazange bangenzel’ okuhle.
