Текст и перевод песни Ladysmith Black Mambazo - Lomhlaba Kawunoni (The Earth Never Gets Fat)

Lomhlaba Kawunoni (The Earth Never Gets Fat)

Lomhlaba Kawunoni (The Earth Never Gets Fat)
Lomhlaba kawunoni madoda
Lomhlaba kawunoni madoda
Nbokuthath' izinsizwa nezintombi
Nezingane zethu nawobabamkhulu
Bakuwo lomhaba.
Uyadela sidumbu
Ngokulal' ethuneni
Umoya uyazula
Indawo kayikho ezulwini.
Webakithi, sihawukeleni webakithi,
Sihawukeleni, sihawukeleni, sihawukeleni,
Sihluphekil' umasinje-nje
Okwami okwezandla.
AYE ...
KUMNANDI KWELAKITHI
EMNAMBITHI!
The Earth Never Gets Fat
The earth never gets fat
The earth never gets fat
It keeps swallowing our men and women.
Even our children and our grandparents
They are all six feet underground.
Blessed is the corpse
That finds a resting place in the grave
While the spirit wanders about
Because there is no room in heaven.
Brothers and sisters
Sympathize with us
We have suffered as it is
sympathize with us.
Aye ...
It is well in our land of Ladysmith.

Lomhlaba Kawunoni (La Terre Ne Grossit Jamais)

Lomhlaba Kawunoni (La Terre Ne Grossit Jamais)
La terre ne grossit jamais, mon amour
La terre ne grossit jamais, mon amour
Elle continue d'avaler nos hommes et nos femmes
Même nos enfants et nos grands-parents
Ils sont tous six pieds sous terre.
Heureux est le corps
Qui trouve un repos dans la tombe
Alors que l'esprit erre
Car il n'y a pas de place au paradis.
Frères et sœurs
Ayez pitié de nous
Nous avons souffert comme cela est
Ayez pitié de nous.
AYE ...
C'EST BIEN DANS NOTRE TERRE DE LADYSMITH
EMNAMBITHI!
The Earth Never Gets Fat
The earth never gets fat
The earth never gets fat
It keeps swallowing our men and women.
Even our children and our grandparents
They are all six feet underground.
Blessed is the corpse
That finds a resting place in the grave
While the spirit wanders about
Because there is no room in heaven.
Brothers and sisters
Sympathize with us
We have suffered as it is
sympathize with us.
Aye ...
It is well in our land of Ladysmith.
