Paroles et traduction iFani - February

February

Uzofika nin' uFebruary?
Sele kusele iintsuk' ezingaphi?
Ebusuku andilali
Ngath' ixesha alihambi
Uzofika nin' uFebruary?
Bawo, uzofika nin' uFebruary? x2

Andikwaz' ukulinda
Uthi naye kum akafun' undishiya
I'm telling her that I need to be there
She's telling me that I need to be here

"Kuthen' ungenolinda? Kutheni ungenocinga?"
"If awulufun' olusana ndizalugcina"
She is telling me that I am not ready
"Cause utheth' ingathi kulul' ukhulis' umntana"

Ndisehotela ndikhangel' iroom
Ndiserumini ndikhangel' ifown
Ndisefownini ndikhangel' uthando
Ndisemathandweni ndikhangel' ubomi

Uthi akazukwaz' ukundilinda 'de ndibuye
Ndizobuya obu bomi besinabo bungekho

Wait x3
Yinton' idate?

I'm like:
"Bhabha masime, sungxama makhe sicinge"
She's like:
"Bhabha kudala simile maside sigqibe"

Athi kum:
"Mzondeleli khawleza, izophel' iairtime
Plus wen' uyavuka, ngalibali ekusen' uyabhala
Bhabha imagine ukupasa kwakho le course yangomso
Ungayi engineer for uSAB and unganemoto
Ndyakwaz' uyazthand' imoto
Plus wen' uyiphiw' ingqondo
Lomntana uzayo bhabha
Kungcono ndivele ndomkhupha ngomso"

Wait. Ndyakuva. Ewe

Ayi...
Ngabatheni abangazokungen' ezulwini
Iyhoo yhoo yho yhoo yhoo, Bawo
Ngabathen abazokushiyeka?
Shiyeka shiyeka, ayi

Ndizenzile mina, ndimyekile, ndibethekile
Andenzanga ngabom, Bawo
Ngabathen abazokundigxek' emhlabeni?

Hayi ndonile
She was supposed to come in February
She was 22, she was supposed to be my baby mama
But she chose to be 22 and not to be a mama
And she said to me:
"Go ahead a chase your dream bhabha"

Bendizoyazi njan' intlung' enje
Bendizowazi njani amaphuph' anje

February

When will you arrive, February?
How many cold days must I endure?
The nights I lie awake
Wishing time would pass more quickly
When will you arrive, February?
Babe, when will you arrive, February? x2

I can't wait any longer
She's telling me that she wants to leave me
I'm telling her that I need to be there
She's telling me that I need to be here

"Why don't you wait? Why don't you think?"
"If you don't want this child, I will keep it"
She's telling me that I am not ready
"Because you talk as if it's easy to raise a child"

I'm at a hotel, looking for a room
I'm on WhatsApp, looking for a phone
I'm on the phone, looking for love
I'm in love, looking for life

She says she won't wait for me to return
I will return, but the life we had will be gone

Wait x3
What is the date?

I'm like:
"Babe let's sit down, let's relax and think"
She's like:
"Babe, we've been sitting down, let's finish"

She tells me:
"Mzondeleli, hurry up, my airtime is running out
Plus when you wake up, you forget that you were writing
Babe imagine if you pass this course tomorrow
You could become an engineer for SAB and own a car
I know you love cars
Plus you've been given a brain
This child that is coming, babe
It's better if I just miscarry it tomorrow"

Wait. I hear you. Yes

No...
Who will be the ones who won't let me into heaven?
Ooh hoo hoo hoo hoo, Babe
Who will be the ones who will leave you alone?
Leave you alone, no

I have done this to myself, I am alone, I am lost
I did not do it on purpose, Babe
Who will be the ones who will criticize me on earth?

Oh, I have sinned
She was supposed to come in February
She was 22, she was supposed to be my baby mama
But she chose to be 22 and not to be a mama
And she said to me:
"Go ahead and chase your dream, babe"

How was I supposed to know about a house like this?
How was I supposed to know about dreams like this?
