Lyrics and translation Flash Ikumkani - Iyabulela Ilali




Iyabulela Ilali
Iyabulela Ilali
Yabulela ilali ndaqala ndiseyi dyongo
I give thanks for the day I began doing what I love
I never lose hope yabulela ilali
I never lose hope, I give thanks for the day
Irap yesixhosa ngoku ise top yabulela ilali
I rap in Xhosa and now I'm on top, I give thanks for the day
Andisakhali no more ndipushi span oko yabulela ilali
I don't cry anymore since I'm back from a long break, I give thanks for the day
Abahlali bonke phof inginqi zonke
All the residents are balling, every single one of them
Apho ndihamba khona bonke bathi bayakholwa
Everywhere I go, they all believe in me
Bendi performa eNatala baye bathi baya bonga
When I performed in Natal, they gave me their thanks
Bathi bayandibona nzame zam bayazibona
They said they see me, and they see my hustle
Akho xesha lohlala abahlali bafuna more
There's no time to rest, the people always want more
Ndipheki ncasa zodwa ndingu Diba ndingu Zondwa
I cook up my own sauce, I'm Diba, I'm Zondwa
Ndisezo wina ndisezo nqoba ndisaphila andikazo stopper
I'm a winner, I'm a conqueror, I'm still alive and I won't stop
Awunoyiba tu le sauce ndiyayi phila lubizo
You can't steal this sauce, I'm going to keep it all to myself
Ewe ndithethi nyan zodwa ewe ndimeli EC yonke
Yes, I speak nothing but the truth, and I represent the whole EC
Ewe ndiqale ndiseyi dyongo ewe ndikhule ndinokholo
Yes, I started out weak, but now I'm strong and I have faith
Ewe ndikhuliswe ngu gogo ewe Big Hustle yi goat
Yes, I was raised by my grandmother, and Big Hustle is the goat
Ye that's for sure abandixhasayo ndiyababonga
That's for sure, to those who support me, I thank you
Yabulela ilali ndaqala ndiseyi dyongo
I give thanks for the day, I began doing what I love
I never lose hope yabulela ilali
I never lose hope, I give thanks for the day
Irap yesixhosa ngoku ise top yabulela ilali
I rap in Xhosa and now I'm on top, I give thanks for the day
Andisakhali no more ndipushi span oko yabulela ilali
I don't cry anymore since I'm back from a long break, I give thanks for the day
Abahlali bonke phof inginqi zonke
All the residents are balling, every single one of them
Ngoku ndiphili phupho lam ndithe kumama angaxhali
Now I'm living my dream, and I tell my mother not to worry
Nyana upushi spani futhi impilo ayisafani
My son is back home, and life is no longer the same
Ngoku ndihamba ndawo ayavuleka ama cango
Now when I travel, doors open for me
Futhi unyana bayamazi ndiphakamisi lali ndimeli bali lam
And those who don't know me will know me, I'm representing my people
Hayi andilinganisi bani andiyazi ngendingubani
No, I don't compare myself to anyone, I know who I am
Ndibonga abalandeli bam
Thank you to my fans
Ndisazi khumbula zonki ntsuku ndilala ndingatyanga
I still remember the days when I went to bed hungry
Ndisazi khumbula zonki ntsuku ndipusha ndingekho ekhaya
I still remember the days when I was away from home
Ndiyazibulela zonke Grootmans eziye zandixhasa
I thank all the Grootmans who have supported me
Kraizie, OB, Lebo, Emtee ndingamlibali uStunner
Kraizie, OB, Lebo, Emtee and I can't forget Stunner
Yabulela ilali ndaqala ndiseyi dyongo
I give thanks for the day I began doing what I love
I never lose hope yabulela ilali
I never lose hope, I give thanks for the day
Irap yesixhosa ngoku ise top yabulela ilali
I rap in Xhosa and now I'm on top, I give thanks for the day
Andisakhali no more ndipushi span oko yabulela ilali
I don't cry anymore since I'm back from a long break, I give thanks for the day
Abahlali bonke hhof inginqi zonke
All the residents have their heads held high
