My baby, swidi lam lomkhuhlaneMy baby, my sweet remedy for the cold
Wena kanti uzanini, ugchith’ is’khathiWhen are you actually coming, you’re wasting time
Nami ng’shona leAnd I’m heading that way
Awu shela ngizwe nganiOh, tell me how you feel
U-ring’ i-vaar, mina ng’seleYou’re talking nonsense while I’m left behind
Can you pardon meCan you pardon me
Kukho konkeThrough everything
Beng’funa wena daliI’ve only wanted you, darling
Kuthen’ udlala ka soWhy are you playing like this
Kukho konkeIn all things
Beng’funa wena daliI’ve been wanting you, darling

Nami kunini ng’zulaAnd I’ve been wandering for so long
Ofana naweSomeone like you
Ng’cela s’ngamoshelan’ is’khathiI’m asking that we don’t waste each other’s time
Ngazam’ uk’bekezelaI’ve tried to be patient

Ngazam’ uk’bekezelaI’ve tried to keep my patience
Ayikh’ int’engiyifunayo ngaphandle kwakhoThere’s nothing I desire except for you

Beng’fun’ uhlale kodw’ inhliziyo i-hurt’ekileI wanted you to stay, but my heart’s been hurt
Nawe sewuzwile ngamYou’ve also heard about me

Ngiyazi ngiyak’khathaza ngeyintombi zamI know I trouble you with my other girls
Noma kwenzakalani ngeskeem samNo matter what happens with my lifestyle
Uyi-stove sam samalahleYou’re my coal stove ‘my source of warmth’
