Kube Ngangazi

Kube ngangazi
Kube ngangazi

Ngaphoxa abazali badumala
Mabethol' ukuthi ng'khulelwe
Mabeng'buza ngawe ekhaya
Kwabanzima ukubatshela ung'balekele
Baba noMama ngicela uxolo
Umkhohlisi ung'khohlisile
K'thiw' intandane enhle umakhothwa unina
Kumele ngiqine mtanami ngik'khulise

Kube ngangazi
Kube ngangazi mina
Ngangingeke
Ngik'nike ubuntombi bami
Kube ngangazi
Kube ngangazi mina
Ngangingeke
Ngik'nike ubuntombi bami

Wuye lo umtanakho usekhulile
'Yambona useyintombi engakanani
Ezimnandi ukuthi uyasebenza
Futhi uyang'nakekela
Mangingakhala ngabe ngiqamba amanga

Ezib'hlungu ukuthi emoyeni akeneme neze
Uhlale ethikuthele, enolaka
Mangimbuza ngomkhwenyane akaphenduli
Uvele anxaphe athi yena akafuni k'gana

Mama amadoda mina ngiyawazonda ayizinja
Ubaba wathi uyas'thanda kodwa ekugcineni wasishiya
Manje ngidlala abafana
Ngihambe ngishayisa
Ngoba ngifun' uthando el'zovala is'khala saBaba

Kub'hlungu
Ng'zothanda kanjani uthando ngingalwazi ngikhula
Kub'hlungu
Uthi konke akwakhayo kuyabhidlika
Kungenxa yakho

Kube ngangazi
Kube ngangazi mina
Ngangingeke
Ngik'nike ubuntombi bami
Kube ngangazi
Kube ngangazi mina
Ngangingeke
Ngik'nike ubuntombi bami

If I had known

If I had known
If I had known

I would have disappointed my parents
They would have found out that I was pregnant
They would have asked about you at home
It would have been difficult to tell them you ran away
Father and Mother, I ask for forgiveness
The deceiver deceived me
They say a beautiful orphan whose mother has passed
I must be strong my child and raise you

If I had known
If I had known
I would never have
Given you my virginity
If I had known
If I had known
I would never have
Given you my virginity

This is your child, she has grown up
See how much of a young woman she is
The good news is that she is working
And she takes care of me
I would be crying if I were lying

The painful thing is that she is not at peace in her spirit
She is always withdrawn and angry
When I ask her about a boyfriend, she doesn't answer
She just snaps and says she doesn't want to be bothered

Mother, I hate men, they are dogs
Father said he loved you but in the end he left us
Now I play with boys
I go around hurting them
Because I'm looking for a love that will fill the void Father left

It hurts
How will I understand love if I didn't know it growing up?
It hurts
She says everything she builds falls apart
Because of you

If I had known
If I had known
I would never have
Given you my virginity
If I had known
If I had known
I would never have
Given you my virginity
