Paroles et traduction Sjava feat. Delayde - Grounding

Grounding

K'thiw' umam' uyakhala ekhaya
Uthi mtanami ng'cela uganwe
Ngamtshel' uthando lwamanje
Selihlukile l'gcwele udlame
Wathi ngiyaz' akukholula wemtanami
Kodwa ng'cel' uzame
Nawe uyabon' ukuthi ilanga liyak'shonela manje
Luth' iy'ngane

Kuyoze kube nini ubaleka
Kuyoba nini ubayeka
Amantombazane ayefana
Nalona omusha uyok'xaka
Kuyoba nini ubaleka
Kuyoba nini ubayeka
Yeka uk'shela uyemsamu
Awazi umfazi uyacelwa

Kuyoba nini ubaleka
Kuyoba nini ubayeka
Amantombazane ayefana
Nalona omusha uyok'xaka
Kuyoba nini ubaleka
Kuyoba nini ubayeka
Yek' uk'shela uyemsamu
Awazi umfazi uyacelwa

Mama nami ngiyafisa ukugcagcwela
Ng'fane nezinye insizwa nami
Nawe mam' uy'qhenye ngami

Uth' okwahlul' ubaba ukubone ngami
Sengilimale kakhulu othandweni
Inhliziyo yami iyopha ma
Yizo zonke lez' izathu zami
Mama uzongixolela ngalenqumo zami

Ngiyazi bayakpiklela bathi
Gibi gibi
Libi kabi
Wemfazi ongazalanga
Uyothi wabonani
Gabi, gabi
Gabi, gabi
Wemfazi ongazalanga
Uyothi wabonani
Mhla ziw'shaya emabaleni akwami

K'thiw' umama uyakhala ekhaya
Uthi mtanami ng'cel' uganwe
Ngamtshel' uthando lwamanje
Selihlukile l'gcwel' udlame

Wathi ngiyaz' akukholula wemtanami
Kodwa ng'cel' uzame
Nawe uyabon' ukuthi ilanga liyak'shonela manje
Luth' iy'ngane

Kuyoze kube nini ubaleka
Kuyoba nini ubayeka
Amantombazane ayefana
Nalona omusha uyok'xaka
Kuyoba nini ubaleka
Kuyoba nini ubayeka
Yek' uk'shela uyemsamu
Awazi umfazi uyacelwa

Kuyoba nini ubaleka
Kuyoba nini ubayeka
Amantombazane ayefana
Nalona omusha uyok'xaka
Kuyoba nini ubaleka
Kuyoba nini ubayeka
Yek' uk'shela uyemsamu
Awazi umfazi uyacelwa

Grounding

My mother cries at home
She says, "My child, please settle down"
I told her love these days
Is different, it's full of violence
She said, "I know it's not easy my child"
But she asked me to try
You see the sun is setting now
She's still a child

Until when will you run
When will you stop
The girls were all the same
This new one will also hurt you
Until when will you run
When will you stop
Stop chasing after them
Don't you know a woman is asked for (in marriage)

Until when will you run
When will you stop
The girls were all the same
This new one will also hurt you
Until when will you run
When will you stop
Stop chasing after them
Don't you know a woman is asked for (in marriage)

Mother, I also wish to settle down
Like other young men
So that you too, mother, can be proud of me

What prevented my father from seeing me grow up
I am very hurt by love
My heart is sore, Ma
These are all my reasons
Mother, you will forgive me for my decisions

I know they gossip and say
Gibi gibi (onomatopoeia - quick, quick)
Libi kabi (onomatopoeia - very bad)
For a woman who hasn't given birth
What have you seen?
Gabi, gabi (onomatopoeia)
Gabi, gabi (onomatopoeia)
For a woman who hasn't given birth
What have you seen?
When they hit my doors

My mother cries at home
She says, "My child, please settle down"
I told her love these days
Is different, it's full of violence

She said, "I know it's not easy my child"
But she asked me to try
You see the sun is setting now
She's still a child

Until when will you run
When will you stop
The girls were all the same
This new one will also hurt you
Until when will you run
When will you stop
Stop chasing after them
Don't you know a woman is asked for (in marriage)

Until when will you run
When will you stop
The girls were all the same
This new one will also hurt you
Until when will you run
When will you stop
Stop chasing after them
Awazi umfazi uyacelwa
