Nkeshemba Isibaya Sikababa Lyrics English Translation
I’ve made my own choice
I made the right choice.
Let’s choose someone as beautiful as this
My mother will be happy
He will be happy and content
My mother will be happy
I made the right choice.
Let’s choose such a beautiful person
My mother will be happy
He will be happy and content
My mother will be happy
Mother sit down
Let me tell you a story.
I said these days you’ll see your bride
I thought he had revealed his identity
He certainly is
He pulled me out of my mother’s arms
He made me fall in love
The beauty of a young woman
His name is exalted
Her smile
We can make a mountain out of a molehill
Her voice sounds like a whistle in the ears
I hear the bell ringing sweetly
In my heart
It has a long history
Come back from this
The first time I saw her
He kissed me with his eyes
He took the heart and threw it into the deep and stood
She gave her love to me
Please tell my father
Talk about him
Tell her that you are her daughter-in-law
Tell him that I’m sorry for him
Tell him that he is respectful and not rude
The beauty of the human child
It’s really a stallion
Modesty found in industriousness
They will land on the right house
I’ll call it perfect. It was perfect.
The beauty of the human child
The mother of the stallion
Modesty found in industriousness
They will land on the right house
I’ll call it perfect. It’s perfect.
You will wipe out all my father’s flock
What will our brothers have left?
If something good is found in you alone
You’re the mother of the house
You will wipe out all my father’s flock
Our fathers will be left with a dowry
All goodness is available to you alone
You’re the mother of the house
She’s a must for a wife
She is a must for a daughter-in-law
She’s a must for a wife
She is a must for a daughter-in-law
You will wipe out all my father’s flock
What will our brothers have left?
If something good is found only in you
You’re a mother’s home
I’ve made my own choice
I’ve made my own choice
I’ve made my own choice
You will wipe out all my father’s flock
(May I choose for myself)
What will our brothers have left?
(I made my own choice)
If something good is found in you alone
(I made my own choice)
You’re the mother of the house
(May I choose for myself)
You will wipe out all my father’s flock
(May I choose for myself)
Our brothers will be left with a dowry
(May I choose for myself)
All goodness is available to you alone
(May I choose for myself)
You’re a mother’s home
(May I choose for myself)
She’s a must for a wife
(I made my own choice)
She’s my daughter-in-law’s favorite.
(I made my own choice)
Nkeshemba Isibaya Sikababa Lyrics
Maye ngazikhethela yena
Cha khona ngikhethe kahle
Mang’khetha umuntu omuhle kanjena
Uyojabula owami mama
Uyojabula ejabulile
Uyojabula umama
Cha khona ngikhethe kahle
Mang’khetha umuntu omuhle kangaka
Uyojabula owami mama
Uyojabula ejabulile
Uyojabula umama
Mama hlala phansi
Nayi indaba ngik’xoxele
Ngathi kulezinsuku sen’zombona umakoti wenu
Ngathi usez’vezile umaqondana
Impela uyena
Wang’khipha emjolweni mama
Wang’faka othandweni
Buhle bentokazi
Unobuhle igama lakhe
I smile sakhe
Singenza ngyogiya entabeni
Iphimbo lakhe lisho umzwilili emadlebeni
Ngizwa umkhenenezo usho kamnandi
Enhlizweni yami
K’sukela kudala
Sbuya kude nalento
Ngang’qala ukumbona
Wangi chock’a ngamehlo akhe
Way’thatha inhliziyo way’phosa ekjuleni wema
Way’nikeza uthando kwawuk’muka kwam lo
Ng’cela maw’tshela ubaba
Umxoxele ngaye
Umtshele ukuthi ungumalokazane wakhe
Umtshele ukuthi mina ngyaz’fela ngaye
Umtshele ukuthi unenhlonipho akadeleli
Muhle umntanomuntu
Impela mama istetelegu
Is’zotha estholakala kuye ukhuthele
Iy’nkomo zyowela emzini ofanele
Ngyoy’shaya y’phelele impela mama kwakuhle kwethu
Muhle umntanomuntu
Impele mama istetelegu
Is’zotha estholakala kuye ukhuthele
Iy’nkomo zyowela emzini ofanele
Ngyoy’shaya y’phelele impela mama kwakuhle kwethu
Uyos’qothula sonke isibaya sikababa
Abafwethu bayosala benani?
Uma into enhle itholakala kuwe k’phela
Uyilento efuneka kumama ekhaya
Uyos’qothula sonke isibaya sikababa
Abafethu bayosala belobola ngemali
Yonke into enhle itholakala kuwe k’phela
Uyilento efuneka kumama ekhaya
Uyilento efuneka kumfazi
Uyilento efuneka kumalokazane
Uyilento efuneka kumfazi
Uyilento efuneka kumalokazane
Uyos’qothula sonke isibaya sikababa
Abafwethu bayosala benani?
Uma into enhle itholakala kuwe k’phela
Uyilento efuneka kumama ekhaya
Maye ngazikhethela yena
Maye ngazikhethela yena
Maye ngazikhethela yena
Uyos’qothula sonke isibaya sikababa
(Maye ngazikhethela yena)
Abafwethu bayosala benani?

Uma into enhle itholakala kuwe k’phela
(Maye ngazikhethela yena)
Uyilento efuneka kumama ekhaya

Uyos’qothula sonke isibaya sikababa

Yonke into enhle itholakala kuwe k’phela

Uyilento efuneka kumfazi

Uyilento efuneka kumalokazame
(Maye ngazikhethela yena)
