Ingonyama nengw' enamabala
Ingonyama nengw' enamabala
(Here is a lion and a tiger)

Night
And the spirit of life
Calling

Oh, oh, iyo
Mamela (Listen)
Oh, oh, iyo

And a voice
With the fear of a child
Asking

Oh, oh, iyo
Oh, Mamela
Oh, oh, iyo

Ubukhosi bo khokho
We ndodana ye sizwe sonke
(Throne of the ancestors
Oh, son of the nation)

Wait
There's no mountain too great
Hear these words and have faith
Have faith

They live in you
They live in me
They're watching over
Everything we see
In every creature
In every star
In your reflection
They live in you

They live in you
They live in me
They're watching over
Everything we see
In every creature
In every star
In your reflection
They live in you

Ingonyama nengw' enamabala
Ingonyama nengw' enamabala
