Ingonyama nengw' enamabala	[Here is a lion and a tiger]

Night
And the spirit of life
Calling

	Oh, oh, iyo
Mamela				[Listen]
	Oh, oh, iyo

And a voice
With the fear of a child
Answers

	Oh, oh, iyo
Oh, mamela			[Listen]
	Oh, oh, iyo

Ubukhosi bo khokho		[Throne of the ancestors]
We ndodana ye sizwe sonke	[Oh, son of the nation)]

Wait
There's no mountain too great
	Oh, oh, iyo
Hear the words and have faith
	Oh, oh, iyo
Have faith

Hela hey mamela			[Hey, listen]

 [bad word] 
He lives in you
He lives in me
He watches over
Everything we see
Into the water
Into the [bad word] 
In your reflection
He lives in you

Ingonyama nengw' enamabala	[Here is a lion and a tiger]
(repeat)

(repeat third verse)
