Mbaqanga

[Verse 1: The Mahotela Queens & Mahlathini]
Sawuqala umbaqanga
Sawutshala kulolonke
Nanamuhla sisawutshala

Sawuqala umbaqanga
Sawutshala kulolonke
Nanamuhla sisawutshala

Sawuqala umbaqanga
Sawutshala kulolonke woooohh
Nanamhlanje sisawutshala

Sawuqala umbaqanga
Sawutshala kulolonke
Nanamuhla sisawutshala

[Pre-Chorus: The Mahotela Queens & Mahlathini]
Sekusele kancane
Kuhlangane amashumi amathathu eminyaka
Silokhu sisonke (Oh sicula)

Sekusele kancane
Kuhlangane amashumi amathathu eminyaka
Silokhu sisonke (Oh sicula)

Sekusele kancane
Kuhlangane amashumi amathathu eminyaka

[Chorus]
Nime nje nje
Sizwe sakithi
Siyaziqhenya ngani
Kuwo wonke umhlaba

Sinje nje nje
Kungenxa yenu
Balandeli bethu
Siyaziqhenya ngani

[Refrain]
Ladies and gentlemen
This group was formed in 1964
And has been together since then haa
They are the creators of umbaqanga
Come on everybody
Come on let’s do Mbaqanga
Come on everybody (Let’s do Mbaqanga) Hheyi heyi heyi

[Hook]
Mbaqanga Mbaqanga (We do Mbaqanga)
Let’s all get together (And do Mbaqanga)
Let’s be happy (Enjoy Mbaqanga)
Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on
Everybody (Let’s do Mbaqanga) Hheyi heyi heyi
Mbaqanga Mbanqanga (We do Mbaqanga)
Let’s all get together (And do Mbaqanga)
Let us be happy (Enjoy Mbaqanga)

[Verse 2: The Mahotela Queens & Mahlathini]
Siyagiya noma sesibadala
Emculweni akugugwa
Sihlala sitshakadula njalo (Yiyo imfihlo yethu)

Sancela umculo
Sakhula ngawo
Sidla umculo
Wooh, silala ngomculo
Sivuke ngawo
Wooh, sihamba ngomculo

[Chorus: The Mahotela Queens]
Nime nje nje
Sizwe sakithi
Siyaziqhenya ngani
Kuwo wonke umhlaba

Sinje nje nje
Kungenxa yenu
Balandeli bethu
Siyaziqhenya ngani

[Hook]
Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on
Everybody (Let’s do Mbaqanga) Hheyi heyi heyi

Let’s all get together (And do Mbaqanga)
Hhe let’s be happy (Enjoy Mbaqanga)

Come on, come on, come on, come on (Let’s do Mbaqanga)
Come on everybody

Let’s all get together (And do Mbaqanga)
Let’s all be happy (Enjoy Mbaqanga)
Come on, come on
