Okanye mandithi ekhaya
Kukwamkekhaya!!
Igama ke nguMafa
Mna uba nanitshilo
Ngendingazange ndivume ukukwamkelilifa,
Eliphi kona ngoba ndaqala phantsi konke
Okanye nitsho isiza
Abazali bam ndandizobakhela
Ndiwuvuse umzi wabo ndingakhali
Ntonje nakheth’ukunditsalel’amanzi ngomsele
Isono sam kukuba yinkulu kwisini na?
Ndakhumzi ndithi ndakhumziwam
Ndazi umntu enolawulo kowakhe umzi
Ndazi indond’iyintloko koway’umzi
Pho kutheni ndilawulwa mna kwam
Bangena bephuma bezenzela,
Ngumdudu kamapasa kodadewethu nabafowethu Batsho ngazwinye kusekhaya apha,
Andisayithethi eyoDabawo kukwabhutapha umziwam sewaphenduka indawo yokwenzel’amasiko.
Ndifel’igama uMafakayise
Akwaba ndandingalivumanga eligama
Ngoba landidontsel’amanzi ngomsele
Ndihlel’inje apha ndidlamathamb’engqondo
Ndizibuza anditholimpendulo

Nakuya kwamkekhaya
Ndafika kunendlwenye namhlanje zintlanu andisolinto kusekhaya
Phofu kwakuthen’ukuze bandikhohlise bethi kukwam lilungelo
Nam ke ndazijul’ijacu ukwakha ndithi ndine kwam?
Ntonje andilawulo kuwo
Igunya andinalo nokuthula noxolo akusekho
Ndicela nindikhulule ndizibonele
Khumbulani noba siphumesizalweni esifanayo
Inkolo ke azifani, andingomntu wamasiko niyandazi
Umtonolawulo kwakhe ayikho into eyenzakalayo kwakhe ngaphandle kwemvume yakhe,
Mna apha kwam ndinyamezela imicimbi yenu
Ndikhululeni ndizibonele
Kakade ngendixakwey’into Indod’engenamalus’iinkomo zayo zaluswa yintengu Ubomi sebuyingxubakaxaka silwelilif’elingekho Mna ndafika kunoRonta omnye apha
Kulungile akusenani bona abazali ndandizobakhela
Pho nandikhohlisela nathi ndingaphum’inxiwa kukwam apha?
Oh Landiwisa ihashe ndilithembile

Sometimes holding on causes more pain than letting go.
Senosala kahle kwamkekhaya
