“Ngiyathanda”

1. Yeka uthando nomusa

KaKristu, washiy’ izulu,

Wasinakekela

Ngezwi nezenzo

Wadel’ isikhathi sakhe

Enakekel’ abaphansi,

Ebaphulukis’ izifo.

Ez’bonakalisa njengombusi.

Ngothando wathi: “Ng’yathanda.”

2. Silandel’ isibonelo

Kwesikwenza nsuku zonke.

Sibathanda bonke

Es’batholayo;

Bafunde ukulalela.

Sisize nabantulayo

S’bathande ngezwi nezenzo.

Uma abampofu bekucela,

Mane nje uthi: “Ng’yathanda.”
