Nka Nako Ho Motseba

Ka mo fumana mosadi
Ke ne ke really ke a mo rata
E ne e Le ntho tsohle
Tseo ke neng ke di hloka
Empa o ne a le mobe
Ke ne ke so there
Setsheho sa hae se ne se sa mpontshe
Tseo ke neng ke di hloka
Ke tsa pono ya mahlo
Ke ne ke lakatsa gore e be wake
Ka mo isa hae lapeng
Mme o ne a batla mohope wa meetse
A re sheba bobeding ba rona
A mpiletsa ka thoko a re ngwanaka:
Nka nako Ho mo tseba
Lenyalo ha se papadi
Nka nako Ho mo tseba
Lepotlapotla le ja pudi.
Empa ka se ke ka mamela mosadi moholo
Ke Ile ka ya kerekeng
Moruti o ne a le teng le mosadi waka
Ga ke gutla mosebetsing tsatsi le lengwe
Ka fumana a na le monna yo mongwe
Ka hopola seo mme le moruti
Be neng ba mpolelela sona:

Give Me Time to Get to Know You

I finally found a woman
I really think I love her
She had all the things
That I had been looking for
But she was too evil
She made me feel so low
The way she treated me
Was not what I had in mind
It was only a matter of time
Before I wished she was gone
I took her home with me
And she asked for a bucket of water
To see how we both looked
She called me to her side and said my dear:
Give me time to get to know you
Marriage is not a game
Give me time to get to know you
Hasty decisions lead to regret.
But I didn't listen to the old woman
I went to the church
And there was the priest with my girl
I came home from work one day
And found her with another man
I remembered what the old woman and the priest
Had told me:
