Nyembezi Songtext

von Johnny Clegg

Ujabul’ uhlezi omendweni m’ntanami , wathola umendo
(happy is she who is married , my child, you have found marriage)
Umuzi wakiwe ngenyembi m’ntamani
(a home is built on tears),
Bazokutshela uzengobuthakathi m’ntanami
(your in-laws will say you are a witch)
Ugabanaki, m’ntanami ungabanaki
(don’t listen to them my child, don’t give in, ignore them)

Khumbula isithembo sakho
(remember your hope and the promise you made)
Khumbula indoda yakho
(remember your husband who you love)
Khumbula isithembo sakho
(remember your hope and your promise)
Ungabanaki m’ntanami
(ignore those who bring you down, my child)

CHROUS:

Tears are falling down like rain
I will never be the same
