[Intro]
Sohlangana eBhayi

Bandifun' imali bo

Ndikhweli etaxini

At least ndiyazi kufudumel' ekhaya
[Chorus]

Sohlangana eBhayi
Sobonana eBhayi
Haayiye
Ndi hambile

"Ndiright, akhonto."

Yayaz' ndiphelelwa
Ngamandl' ok'qhubeka
At least ndiyazi kufudumel' ekhaya
[Chorus]

Ndi hambile
Sohlangana eBhayi
Sobonana eBhayi

Ndi hambile
Sohlangana eBhayi
Sobonana eBhayi

Siya zalana mama (zum-pe-pe-pe-pe)
Ey! Thina, thina, thina, thina
Siya zalana mama (zum-pe-pe-pe-pe)
[Chorus]
Haayiye
Ndi hambile
Sohlangana eBhayi
Sobonana eBhayi
Haayiye (Oh Hayiye)
Ndi hambile (Ndihambile)
Sohlangana eBhayi (Oh yeyi)
Sobonana eBhayi (Hi-ih-ih-ih)
