Sishango sikaMabhendla
Mabhendla eseNdlovane
UMabhendla obaba njengoJobe kwaMahaqwabezi
Nina bakaPhisa
Sithole sasekhaya
Mandeku!
Shango!
Nina bakwaVezi ozivezayo
Mdineka!
Nhlabathi!
Manzi!
Nina bakaNobanda ngomsasane
Isihlahl’ esiband’ amagwala
Nina bakaNtshikantshikana
Etshikize phansi kweSandlwane
Yabonwa ngabazingel’ bakoMfekana
Bayibone ngamabheq’ ukusithela
Nina bakaMbeng’ osind’ abosi
Ngokubanzim’ eziko
Nina bakaMakhokhoba ngenkom’ iyemhlangeni
Wangen’ emhlangen’ engangombhuquzwane
Waphum’ engangomthantekazi wesithole.
