INgoma Yazo Iingoma
Ndiyikhile imore yam nesiqholo sam.+
Ndibutyile ubusi bam;
Ndiyisele iwayini yam nobisi lwam.”+
“Yityani, bahlobo bam!
Selani, ninxile luthando!”+
2 “Ndilele, kodwa intliziyo yam ihleli.+
Naso isithandwa sam sinkqonkqoza!
‘Ndivulele mntu wam, sithandwa sam,
Hobe lam, wena ungenasiphako!
Kuba intloko yam imanzi ngumbethe,
Iinwele zam zimanzi kukufuma kwasebusuku.’+
3 Sendiwukhulule nje umwunduzo wam.
Ndiphinde ndiwunxibe?
Sendizihlambile nje iinyawo zam.
Ndiphinde ndizingcolise?
4 Isithandwa sam sasikhupha isandla saso kwikroba locango,
Kwathi ngco kum ngaphakathi.
5 Ndavuka ndaya kusivulela isithandwa sam,
Izandla zam zivuza imore,
Neminwe yam ithontsiza imore,
Kwisitshixo somnyango.
6 Ndasivulela isithandwa sam,
Kodwa sasijikile semka.
Ndashiyeka ndikhathazekile,
Ndasikhangela, andasifumana.+
Ndasikhwaza, asandiphendula.
7 Ndabonwa ngoonogada besixeko.
Bandibetha, bandenzakalisa.
Bohlutha nelaphu lam lokuzogquma.
8 Ndiyanifungisa, zintombi zaseYerusalem:
Ukuba nisibonile isithandwa sam,
Sixeleleni ukuba ndiyafa luthando.”
9 “Sahluke ngantoni isithandwa sakho kwamanye amadoda,
Nzwakazi yeenzwakazi?
Sibhetele ngantoni isithandwa sakho,
Le nto ude usifungise kangaka?”
10 “Umntu wam yinzwana ebengezelayo,
Uphuma yedwa kumawaka alishumi.
11 Intloko yakhe yeyegolide, eyona golide yodidi.
Iinwele zakhe zinjengamasebe esundu* aphaphazelayo.
Zimnyama oku kwehlungulu.
Imilebe yakhe ziinyibiba ezivuza imore.+
14 Iminwe yakhe yigolide ehonjiswe ngekrizolite.
Isisu sakhe luphondo lwendlovu olumenyezelayo lwaza lwahonjiswa ngesafire.
15 Imilenze yakhe ziintsika zemabhile ezibekwe phezu kweyona golide yodidi.
Mhle okweLebhanon, akanantanga okwemithi yemisedare.+
Sisithandwa sam ke eso, zintombi zaseYerusalem, ngumntu wam ke lowo.”
