Makhabeleni

Ngikhumbula ngisakhula ngikhul'ekhaya
I remember the days growing up at home
Baba nomama, nobaba, nomame
Fathers and mothers, fathers and mothers
Basithanda thina emakhabeleni
They once cared and loved us in makhabeleni
Hawu, sasikhula emakhabeleni
Oh, we grew up in makhabeleni
Hawu, babesithanda emakhabeleni
Oh, they loved and cared for us in makhabeleni
Ikhaya lami lisele
My home is now gone and behind me
Ikhaya lami lingekho
My home that is not here anymore
Hawu, sasikhula emakhabeleni
Oh, we grew up in makhabeleni
Hawu, babesithanda emakhabeleni
oh, they loved and cared for us in makhabeleni
