Washesh wawel baba wam
Wangshiy ngselusan
Yeb ngyavum’uthand ungnikile
Ngamazw ungakhile
Kant ngezint zomhlab ungfundisil
Kodua ushesh wawel bab wam
Ngyathemb ujabul lp ukhon
Pl ubuwmunt wenjabul
Bes kshod khon ukth ube uNjabulo
Kwazis pl ubuhlez uleth injabul
Igam lakh ubew Themba
Njengegam lakh mn bengThembe yen
Bangphuc elam Themba
I was left hopeless with my heart full of scars
Washesh wawel bab wam
Inhliziy ikhal ubsuk nemin
Ngyafis ukphind ngikbon bab wami
I promise if there was visiting hours in heaven
Ngab kad ngangikvakashel mihla namalang
Lal uphumul Themba lam
Lal uphumul bab wam
Kodua
Ushesh wawel bab wam
