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 these 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
(repeat)

(repeat third verse)
