TIBONGO TENGWENYAMA MAHLOKOHLA WAMBANDZENI

Mahlokohla lomnyama, ngulondzatja ngentsamo
Lohlokohle timbiba taphuma tenta buhlakalala,
Taye tayawubanjwa ngudaladi esangweni
KaZombodze wemagugu.
Ngwane Lulakane nekhaya netsafeni,
Bebatemdzindz' umkhaba.
Uyisaphi kuLancabane?
Ngwane usona nonani,

Loku bahlaba tinkhomo bayahlindzisana,
Mngce kushe kube sehlobo,
Kuye kusuk' emalangabi.
Hlangu sinembele wenkhomo.
Ntsambo katetfwalwa kaZombodze wemagugu.
Wahlohla-ke dvoye!
Nangelutsi lwemkhonto bewungahlohla.
Ngiyamesab' umtakaMadzanga,
Wabit' inkhosi ngebudzatja,
Waye wayibita ngebugeletjane.
Hhululu!

Wehle njani emahlatsini lamadze?
Kantsi ngaseMamphondvweni.
Ngingayitsatsaphi inkhosi lengangaNgwane?
Ngiyikhwet' etu kweMdzimba.
Mlom' ufika ezulwini.

Ngwane emantini ngimfanisa nesitiba;
Ngwane endleleni ngimfanisa nalevundlako;
Ngwane emitsini ngimfanisa nemnyamatsi;
Ngwane embutini ngimfanisa nesiphongwane;
Ngwane enkhomeni ngimfanisa nenshivatane.
Ngcabiya teluhlunguhlungu tiyababa.
Mkhondvo wetindlovu awulandvwa,
Uyawulandvwa bafana basetingadzeni.
Mhhamuta bantfu bangenaboya Ngwane.
Ligodza lakaZombodze
Kadze liwagil' emadvodza emacakala.
Inyoni ledlalel' emahubhen' etintsaba.
Ingwe ledl' ematfole etinyatsi.

Buhle baNgwane bungididile,
BungangaVimba kanye naMashongololo.
Uyephana yela Ngwane!
Ngekupha tinyoni teMamphondvweni,
Tidla atiwesuli umlomo,
Wapha Cayitane,
Wase uyawubita Bhebhebhe,
Kutsi kuyadliwa eMamphondvweni,
Wase uyewubita lelikhulu
Lelinemphandl' enhloko.

Buhlalu kabuhlangan' entsanyeni,
Ingani kuCikose buyahlangana.
Umvemve wakitsi ngete ngawubeka emutaneni,
Ngingawubeka kaZombodze wemagugu.
Ngwane phani losemnyango,
Losemsamo umtsambekele.
Mbhabha ngajozi lakhe.

Nkhomo taphela tinselo tiy' emtini wakho
EMamphondvweni.
Uyadzela mfati waseSigombeni,
Walibuka lijaha laNdaba,
Uyadzela mfati waseNyakeni,
Walibuka lijaha laNdaba,
Uyadzela mfati waseMafutseni,
Walibuka lijaha laNdaba,
Liyoshoshobala ngesikhala lesasishona
Khuzwayo waMahlalela waNkhosi.
Uyadzela mfati wakaMshikashika,
Walibuka lijaha laNdaba.

Uyadzela mfati wakaMkhweli,
Ngekubuka lijaha laNdaba.
Intfumbeleti yaDlamini,
Itfumbelete futs' emahlatsini eMadvokanyawo.
Uyadzela Mashicela,
Ngetulu kweLubombo,
Walibuka lijaha laNdaba.
Lugobe lukhulu lusihlalele,
Lubitwe ngemadvuna akaNgwane,
Akubitel' imphi yesilungu.

Buhle bungandlati teShowe,
Tona timashob' ahlula ludzaka.
Lowadzabula kuLongwevu,
Wayifulel' indlu yeMbabane,
Wentel' emadvodza khona
Atekuba mphunga.

Mdlovu bawuhlabile,
Bawuhlab' ekupheleni kwetimphondvo.
Wayishay' inhloko yaLembelele waSobhuza!
Bayethe!
Wena waphakatsi!
