Lyrics and translation Mr. Bow - Story of My Life




Story of My Life
Story of My Life
Mina ni hum aka wusiwana
I was born when it was cold
Mina ni swaliwi u siwanini
I was raised by my grandmother
Mamana wanga ani wundle hiku hlupheka (um um)
My mother used to wake me up when she cooked (um um)
Mamana wanga ani wundle hiku rhimela
My mother used to wake me up to eat
Manwani masika hiyetlela hinga dlanga
I was brought up by the rain until I saw the sun
Mamana a rhila aku nitaku yini nwananga
My mother asked me what I would be in the future
Hey vangano va wena xicole loku uva vona va busa
Hey, these people who see you now, they used to laugh at you
Tikhomi, unga naveli nwananga
Stay strong, don't tell anyone
Ni sangula ku tsema swihuvani sulwe ni luka masangu
I promised you to tell the truth even if it hurts
Ni sangula ku hamba mabadjia mi ni xakolwene
I promised you to leave the streets and be a good person
Nitsema ni hunhi ni xavisa, ni hlayisa timbuti nati kumba
I said that I'm shy and ashamed, I'll make you and your family laugh
Ni zama zama matlelu hinkwawu nita pfuna mamani
I'll keep trying every day until I find my mother
It's my story, story aa eeee

Ni fikili ka txaintxai, hiku lava vutomi nwana mamani
I think about the past, because life was hard for my mother
Nikuma nhana ntirhu, kaya kamunwane wa maman iwa phoyisa
I started working young, because my mother's husband was a policeman
Niva ni suka, niya tirha ka barraca
I went to school, I worked in a bar
Kambe lweyi wa patrao wa mona ani sukela hitimpama
But the boss realized that I was stealing from him
Oyooo maweee, swa tika mawe
Oyooo my goodness, it was bad
Utomi la mina, nita byela mane
My life, I'll tell you everything
Mamani ninguemu foneli byela leswi, swingamu vava mbilu
I called my mother on the phone and told her everything, I made her cry
Anga wondza hiku rhila madala wa mina
She was worried because she loved me
It's my story, story aa eeee
It's my story, story aa eeee

Ni fikili kamaputsu, mina ni zama zama
I think of the future, I'll keep trying
Ingave mani lweyi angata pfuna mina
I don't know how I'll find you
Nixavisi magwala le benfica (wawe)
I showed off in the Benfica stadium (wow)
Ni xavisa tinpahla (wawe)
I showed off my clothes (wow)
Usikwini ni guidela xikola nani lava utomi
One day I'll go to school and have a life
Kame mbilu ya mina yini komba swaku txayo (hey)
My heart tells me to go back home (hey)
Ambilu ya mina ini komba swati ngoma
My heart tells me to go back to my roots
Ni zama zama, nambi swo yala
I'll keep trying, maybe I'll get there
Ni tiyisela nambi swo tika
I'll pray that I'll get there
Namuntla la ni fambuka mina vali bawito
Today I'm back, I'm a new man
Nwana mamani yana mahlwene
Your son is different
Haleluia, xikwembu xini hlamulile mino
Hallelujah, God saved me
Haleluia, xikwembu xini twelile maxaka
Hallelujah, God blessed us
Haleluia, xikwembu xini pfunili vaka hino
Hallelujah, God gave us a new chance
Haleluia, nita pfuna mamani
Hallelujah, I'll find my mother
