Translation of the song lyrics Thambo Lam - The Soil, Kwesta

Thambo Lam (original)

Kentucky ithambo lami
Uyilo wena lovie wami
Sthandwa sami upgithezelisa imizwa yami
Khetha mina baby ngizokuphatha kahle
(Ngikuthande nom’uvutha baby stofu sam samalahle)
Mina ngivele ngiphonse ilitje phezu kwendlu (ilitje phezu kwendlu)
Meke phuma igazi liyashukuma
Mina ngivele ngiphonse ilitje phezu kwendlu (ilitje phezu kwendlu)
Make phuma izulu liyaduduma
Igama lakhe usbahle
(Angeke ngimlahle)
Kwaphela ukubhampa namhlanje ngihambe kahle
Igama lakhe usbahle
(Angeke ngimlahle)
Stofu sam samalahle usbahle ungfudumeza kahle
Kentucky ithambo lami
Uyilo wena lovie wami
Sthandwa sami uphithizelisa imizwa yami
Khetha mina baby ngizokuphatha kahle
(Ngikuthande nom uvutha baby stofu sam samalahle)
Sweedy lami limkhuhlane wena sthandwa sami
Smomoza sami ngifuuuuuna uhlale nami
Isiphalaphala sentombi sibuzwa kuwe
Sincandamathe sami sofa silahlane
Kentucky ithambo lami
Uyilo wena lovie wami
Sthandwa sami uphithizelisa imizwa yami
Khetha mina baby ngizokuphatha kahle
(Ngikuthande nom uvutha baby stofu sam samalahle)
Lo uvilakazi umphephethwa umshukumisa igazi uyamenza
Nom ihlaba inameva
Ikhandelwe mina nawe lendlela
Mvelase mthembu my shukela pine nut yami
Ublind untswembu my boom baap uyi punch line yami
Mama wami baphi o malume abafake amabhantji balunge
Sthandwa sami ungabi usaduba noma kumakhaza uthando luyavutha
Ubamba la ngithi eish ubambe le ngithi eish wang tsikinyetsa
I just hope you can see you ain’t gotta kill me coz already ngiyazfela
Noma bangathini bathi ngiku thakathile
Wen' ubone mina kuzozonkhe intombi es’godini
Dali thath' okwami ungink' okwakho
Ngizokuthanda kuze kufike ekufeni
Dali wena
Ukhanya njengelanga liphum' e’kseni
Noma amazwi angaphela kusobala ebusweni
Wena thanda mina
Mina ngikhethe wena
Ngizokuthanda ngize ngifike ek’feni
Kentucky ithambo lami
Uyilo wena lovie wami
Sthandwa sami uphithizelisa imizwa yami
Khetha mina baby ngizokuphatha kahle
(Ngikuthande nom’uvutha baby stofu sam samalahle)

Thambo Lam (translation)

Kentucky is my bone
You are my lovie
My darling you are pouring out my feelings
Choose me baby I will treat you well
(I love you and burning baby my coal stove)
I just threw a stone on the roof (stone on the roof)
Let the blood flow
I just threw a stone on the roof (stone on the roof)
Mom, come out. The sky is thundering
Her name is beautiful
(I will not abandon him)
I ended up bumping today and went well
Her name is beautiful
(I will not abandon him)
My charcoal stove is nice and warm
Kentucky is my bone
You are my lovie
My darling you are confusing my feelings
Choose me baby I will treat you well
(I love you nom burning baby my coal stove)
My sweedy fever you my love
My Smomoza I want you to stay with me
Girlfriends are asked for you
My sweetheart is dying
Kentucky is my bone
You are my lovie
My darling you are confusing my feelings
Choose me baby I will treat you well
(I love you nom burning baby my coal stove)
This lazy fan blows the blood and makes it
But the sting is thorny
You and I have blocked this route
Mvelase mthembu my sugar pine nut
Blind me my boom baap is my punch line
My mother, where are the uncles in the coats?
My love, do not be afraid or in the cold, love is burning
Holding here I say eish hold this I say eish wang shake
I just hope you can see you ain’t gotta kill me coz i am already dying
No matter what they say I am a witch
See me in all the girls in the valley
Create your own and become yours
I will love you to the end
Create yourself
He shines like the sun rising in the sky
Or words may end up clearly in the face
You love me
I have chosen you
I will love you until I die
Kentucky is my bone
You are my lovie
My darling you are confusing my feelings
Choose me baby I will treat you well
(I love you and burning baby my coal stove)
