Mukwasha
Son-in-law
Kumura nguwane
Marriage is a real thing,
Pfugama nebvi rimwechete wotorova gusvu mukwasha
Kneel on one knee and pay your respects, son-in-law.
Denga riye rakatinhira
The heavens have thundered,
Tirikuda mbeu neanorima
We need seeds and a farmer.
Wotoona yekutamba mukwasha
You should know how to dance, son-in-law.
Aah wondimutsa nemutupo
Aah, you woke me up with my totem.
Gara wangoziva kuti ndozviripo
Always know that it is real.
Kana zvakunetsa mwana wangu dzora mukwasha
If it's too much for you, my child, return him, son-in-law.
Uchatenga mombe, uchabaya uchavhiya
You will buy cattle, you will slaughter and skin them.
Uchapura nyemba uchadzura nzungu dziya
You will shell beans, you will dig up those groundnuts.
Ende baba vati vanoda madhorofiya

Wotomhanya musango mukwasha

Everyone says ask the son-in-law.
Pakati pevanhu vese varipo
Among all the people here,
Ndiyani watigarira kumhepo
