    A a Kenyan there is one thing i like with SOUTH AFRICANS Though you gained your independence from the colonial power after many years of struggle you people have embraced your culture. Your songs are rich in african culture taste. It is really endowed with Gods own glory. i like your music.even though i may not understand the language but watching and listening to it brings home the massage. VIVA SOUTH AFRICA.

    Ngafa, ngafel' ubala (I am dying, there is no determined cause)
    Ingabe yini (I wonder what it is)
    Bayangitshela laba engihamba khona (Those with whom I hang around assert..)
    Bathi kimi IZINTOMBI ZAMI (it is my girlfriends)
    Uma ngingena esibhedlela mina (Whenever I go to the hospital)
    Ngiyofuna usizo ngempilo (To seek help concerning my health)
    Bafike bethi Hamba Baba awunalutho (The professionals say go home Baba, there's nothing to be concerned about)
    Uma ngingena emtholampilo mina (whenever I go to the clinic)
    Ngiyofuna usizo ngempilo yami (To seek help help concerning my health)
    Bafike bethi Hamba Baba awunalutho (They say go home Baba, there's nothing to be concerned about)
    Hhawu ngomoya wami (Alas! My soul/spirit)
    Hhawu ngempilo yami (Alas! My life/ health)
    Awungitshele Nobuhle wami (Tell me, my Nobuhle)
    Ngoba ngangithandana nawe (Since we were once lovers)
    Wangibhanqa nabangaki (how many did I share you with?)
    Awungitshele (Tell me)
    Nobuhle RESPONDS: Babe babili (There were two + the singer)
    Awungitshele Nomusa wami (My Nomusa, tell me)
    Ngoba ngangithanda nawe (Since we were once lovers)
    Wangibhanqa nabangaki na? (How many did I share you with?)
    Ngithi awungitshele (Please do tell)
    NOMUSA RESPONDS: Babe bathathu (There were three + the singer lol)
    Kwakungamele ukuthi ningibhanqe nabantu abaningi (Ya'll should not have been unfaithful to me, especially with so many men)
    Ngoba nani niyazi (because ya'll are also aware of..)
    Kulomhlaba kunezifo (How widespread venereal diseases are, in the world)
    Kwakumele nithande mina ngedwa (Ya'll should have only stuck with me)
    Mina ngedwa vo (ONLY ME)
    Awungitshele wena Sindisiwe wami (My Sindisiwe, please tell me)
    Wena ngoba ngihlala nawe endlini (We are cohabitating)
    Bangaki na ongibhanqe nabo ke? (Tell me, how many do I share you with?)
    SINDISIWE RESPONDS: Dali wami, ngicela ukukhuluma iqiniso kuwe dali (My darling, let me just be honest with you)
    Baningi ngeke ngeke ngibaqede (There is an abundance of them. I wouldn't count them)
    Hhawu imihlola yami (Alas! Am I being tested?)
    Imihlola yami yini le? (Am I really being tested?)
    Wangibulala Nobuhle wami (You killed me, my Nobuhle)
    Ngangikuthanda kangaka (But I loved you so much)
    Ngikuthembe kangaka (But I trusted you so much)
    Wangibulala Nomusa wami
    Wangibulala Sindi wami
    Kanti ninesandla ekufeni kwami (Ya'll played your part in my demise)

    There is sense of purity that comes with this song. It reminds me of my uncle who would cross the border from Zimbabwe to SA during the toughest times in Zimbabwe around 2007 to 2008. He would provide for us and many others in the family. He brought a tape of this song from the trips he made to SA. I really like the song

I also live in Soweto and I have found most foreign tourists are misinformed by some bitter white South Africans that they'll be killed the moment they set their foot in Soweto. I am happy that the majority of those tourists choose to ignore such stupid advices and are still alive to tell. Soweto is a happening place and relatively safe than most SA places. We need their Pound Sterling more than ever. Thabani, encourage them to come this side more.
