Ngizohamba

Ngizohamba

A homage to the animals in Zulu.


Lyrics:


Ngizohamba ngezinyawo ukuyobingelela

Izindlovu, amadube, amabhubesi, nezimpala


Woza, Woza uhambe nami

Woza, Woza uhambe nami


(Translation) I Will Go


I will go by foot to greet

The elephants, zebras, lions, impala.

Come with me 

Come with me
