Lyrics: Lala

Oh mta ka mama wam [Oh, my mother's child]
Oh mfo wethu [Oh, my dear brother]
Ndi ya ku khumbula mna [I miss you]
La la, La la

Oh mta ka mama wam [Oh, my mother's child]
Oh mfo wethu [Oh, my dear brother]
Ndi ya ku khalela mna [I cry for you]

Motswalle waka [My dear friend]
Ngwana mme [My mother's child]
Ndiyani khumbula [I miss you]
La la kahle [Farewell]
(Repeat)

(Chorus)
We sangoma ngi velelwe [Oh, spiritual healer, I'm troubled]
We baba ngivelelwe [Oh, my father, I'm in pain]
We baba ngivelelwe [Oh, my father, I'm in pain]
(Repeat)

Oh mta ka mama wam [Oh, my mother's child]
Oh mfo wethu [Oh, my dear brother]
Ndi ya ku khalela mna [I cry for you]

Motswalle waka [My dear friend]
Ngwana mme [My mother's child]
Ndiyani khumbula [I miss you]
La la kahle [Farewell]
(Repeat)

(Repeat chorus to fade)
