Ivikela Mbuso (original)

Uma ngingalala amaqhawe ayoshawa la
Mina ngilivikelambuso, ngi’vikelambuso
Mina ngilivikelambuso
Nkabi yinsika yesizwe Yeyi
Uma ngingalala amathuba ayoshabalal'
Mina ngyiskhali seynsizwa
Uma ngingalala izinsizwa ziyophapha la
Mina ngi’vikelambuso, ngi’vikelambuso
Nkabi livikelambuso
Mina ngilivikelambuso, ngi’vikelambuso
Nkabi livikelambuso
Ngangena ngasungul ushun
Bath' abadala ozongena akabuyi
Bathi lenqola ay’dum
Kant' abaphush abaphans abavum
Hhay suka abadede
Mina ngiyinkabi eyazalwa yembethe
Hhayi nxe, suka abang’xege
Ngawugubha lomgodi nje ngeke bangimele
Eshe, lena bath' ayizondi
Kwafa kwasan inkabi ayxoli
Yaz nina anibona besith syadlala
Inkabi ayidon
Mina ngingayiqala ngingayimela
Ungangitsheli nge beef nginayihlaba ngingayipheka
INation ningayibuza inganitshela
Mina ngigqok' uBrentwood isketi singang’xega
Nkabi yinsika yesizwe.
Yeyi!
Uma ngingalala amathuba ayoshabalal'
Mina ngyiskhali seynsizwa wo
Uma ngingalala izinsizwa ziyophapha la, wo!
Mina ngi’vikelambuso, ngi’vikelambuso
Nkabi livikelambuso, Yeyi!
Mina ngilivikelambuso, ngi’vikelambuso
Nkabi livikelambuso (Shun Wenkabi)
Yey
Mina ngangena ngaphatha
Bas’nikez' is’hlalo ke abanye basaba
Mina les’hlalo ngyasthanda
Anitshele obehleli seng’khona angahamba
Hebe!
Les’godi ngiyasthatha
Uma kukhona onenkinga abofika ngizomlanda
Eshe!
Iynsizwa niyophatha isizwe eseNkabi bafana ningapaka
Umfana ngingamshaya ngingamkhothisi
Nge’nduku zam' ngijike ngingamhlikihli
Ubheke ubheke angakukhohlisi
Ngamphiph' is’londa nje ngijike ngingak’pholisi
Loshun owevikelambuso mina ngingedwa ngingagingqa amabutho
Uthini?
Kukhona onombuzo?
Nkabi Nation, Shwele umshubo!
Nkabi yinsika yesizwe.
Yeyi!
Uma ngingalala amathuba ayoshabalal', wo
Mina ngyiskhali seynsizwa wo
Uma ngingalala izinsizwa ziyophapha la, wo!
Mina ngi’vikelambuso, ngi’vikelambuso
Nkabi livikelambuso, Yeyi!
Mina ngi’vikelambuso, ngi’vikelambuso
Nkabi livikelambuso
Yey
Nkabi yinsika yesizwe.
Yeyi!
Uma ngingalala amathuba ayoshabalal', wo
Mina ngyiskhali seynsizwa wo
Uma ngingalala izinsizwa ziyophapha la, wo!

(translation)

If I don't sleep, the heroes will shower here
I am defending the country, I am defending the country
I am the defense minister
Nkabi is a pillar of the Yeyi nation
If I can't sleep the chances are gone
I am a young warrior
If I don't sleep, the young men will wake up
I am defending the country, I am defending the country
It is a bad defense
I am defending the country, I am defending the country
It is a bad defense
I went in early
The elders say that whoever enters does not return
They say that this car is not famous
They don't push, they don't give, they don't agree
Well, let them go
I am an ox born of dew
Not at all, get rid of the slackers
If I shake this mine, they will not stand for me
Well, this one is not hateful
The ox died suddenly
Come on, you can't see we're playing
An ox is not a dog
I can start it and I can stand for it
Don't tell me about the beef, I can chop it and cook it
You can ask the Nation and it will tell you
I'm wearing Brentwood's loose skirt
I am a pillar of the nation.
Hey!
If I can't sleep the chances are gone
I am a young warrior
If I don't sleep, the young men will wake up, oh!
I am defending the country, I am defending the country
It's a bad way to protect the country, Yei!
I am defending the country, I am defending the country
Shun Wenkabi (Shun Wenkabi)
Yeh
I went in and took care of it
They gave him a seat and others fled
I love this seat
Tell the one who was already there to leave
Hebe!
I'm taking this pit
If anyone has a problem, I will come and get them
Aye!
Iyinsizwa, you will lead the nation in Nkabi, guys, you can park
I can beat the boy without giving him a break
With my sticks I turned around without rubbing him
Make sure he doesn't deceive you
I just got a wound and turned around before it healed
The one who defends the country, I am alone and I can defeat the troops
What you say?
Anyone have a question?
Nkabi Nation, Forgive me!
I am a pillar of the nation.
Hey!
If I don't sleep the chances will disappear, wo
I am a young warrior
If I don't sleep, the young men will wake up, oh!
I am defending the country, I am defending the country
It's a bad way to protect the country, Yei!
I am defending the country, I am defending the country
It is a bad defense
Yeh
I am a pillar of the nation.
Hey!
If I don't sleep the chances will disappear, wo
I am a young warrior
If I don't sleep, the young men will wake up, oh!
