Ivy League’s Inyembezi Zulu Lyrics English Translation
The performer encourages listeners to ‘walk softly and love yourself a little.’ Momo describes the act of letting go of regret and finding peace, even when life feels heavy. His words remind us that we can’t please everyone.
Inyembezi zami zophalalaMy tears will pour out.
Ndizam’ukwakh’ uxolo nabonk’ abantuI’m trying to find peace with everyone.
Iya anditsho njalo nditsho njaloYes, I’m saying it, I’m saying it.
Iya anditsho njalo nditsho njaloYes, I’m saying it, I’m saying it.
Ith’ icath’intwana yozithandaTry to walk softly and love yourself a little.
Uvulele umnyango wezimangaOpen the door to wonders.
Ay nditsho njalo nditsho njaloNo, I’m saying it, I’m saying it.
