Siyayibiz' as'hambeni. Hayi, 'Ngane YamaShangane!
(We are calling: hey! let's go child of the Shangaan) Siyayibiz' As'hambeni. As'hambeni! (We are calling: let's go. let's go!) Oh the river is wide And the water is deep Got no money and I can't get to sleep Takes all my courage to look down that long road I am going to Giyani With such a heavy load I've got to: Shintsha; Qinga; Qingel'isibindi (change; strengthen myself; take courage) And don't give up Chorus : Oh I'm going to Giyani Siyayibiz' As'hambeni. As'hambeni (We are calling: let's go. let's go!) Oh I'm going to touch That magic mystery Leaving my troubles behind me Did you hear about the mouse That went to the cat for love The cat said: "Mouse, I can't be what your'e dreaming of. You're so lonely. You've got it mixed up. You're looking down below for what lies up above." You've got to Siyayibiz' As'hambeni. As'hambeni (We are calling: let's go. let's go!) Don't give up Chorus : Oh I'm going to Giyani Siyayibiz' As'hambeni. As'hambeni (We are calling: let's go. let's go!) Oh I'm going to touch That magic mystery Leaving my troubles behind me |
