ZULU LYRICS + ENGLISH TRANSLATION

Ngilila ngawe… — I cry for you…
ngilila ngawe… — I cry for you…
Inhliziyo yami ikhala, — My heart is crying,
ayisakwazi ukumelana… — it cannot endure anymore…

Ngikubiza ebumnyameni, — I call for you in the darkness,
ubuyele kimi, sthandwa sami… — come back to me, my love…

Ngihamba ngedwa futhi, — I walk alone again,
umoya wakho usekude… — your presence feels far away…

Izinyembezi ziyangigeleza, — Tears fall from me,
ngikufuna lapho wawumi khona… — I search for you where you used to stand…

Izindawo esasithandana kuzo, — The places we once loved each other,
manje zingithwele ngedwa… — now carry me alone…

Ubudwa bungizungeza, — Loneliness surrounds me,
ngiphethe izicucu zothando lwethu… — holding the broken pieces of our love…

Sthandwa sami… uphi wena? — My beloved… where are you?
Izwi lakho selithule phakathi kwabantu… — Your voice is silent among the people…

Ngibhekh’ ulwandle olukhulu, — I look toward the great water,
ngicela impendulo emoyeni… — begging for an answer in the wind…

Ngilila ngawe… — I cry for you…
ngilila ngawe… — I cry for you…
Inhliziyo yami ikhala, — My heart is crying,
ayisakwazi ukumelana… — it cannot endure anymore…

Ngikubiza ebumnyameni, — I call for you in the darkness,
ubuyele kimi, sthandwa sami… — come back to me, my love…
