Juba Lami
Dust to dust and ashes to ashes
Uthuli othulini
Bathi amagugu elilizwe
Ayosala Emathuneni, thuneni
Ngiyabuza kuwena mdali
Kwa Khala nyonini dlozi lami, hoh
Mina ngazala ingane
Yakhuliswa ukufaa
I wish I knew the color of your eyes
Were they any similar to mine?
I wish I knew the brightness of your smile, in the dead of night
Ooh, I wish I knew the color of your eyes
Were they any similar to mine?
I wish I knew the brightness of your smile in the dead of night
Yakunetha imvula, isule ezonyembezi
Nyembezi zeminyaka, aahaa
Nyembezi zaka mama oohaa
Yakunetha imvula, isule ezonyembezi
Nyembezi zeminyaka, aahaa
Nyembezi zaka mama ooh
Hamba Juba lami
Ndizela' emafini
Sizobuya sibonane, Kwelizayoo

Hamba mntaka mama, Hamba mntaka mama, Hamba mntaka mama

My Dove
Dust to dust and ashes to ashes
Dust on dust
They say the treasures of this country
They will remain in the grave, in the grave
I ask you, creator
In the bird's nest, my ancestor, oh
I gave birth to a child
Raised to death
I wish I knew the color of your eyes
Were they any similar to mine?
I wish I knew the brightness of your smile, in the dead of night
Ooh, I wish I knew the color of your eyes
Were they any similar to mine?
I wish I knew the brightness of your smile in the dead of night
It rained, it wiped away the tears
Tears of the years, aahaa
Mother's tears, oh my
It rained, it wiped away the tears
Tears of the years, aahaa
Mother's tears ooh
Go, my Dove
I'm flying in the clouds
We will meet again, in the future

We will meet again, in the future

It rained, it wiped away the tears
Tears of the years, ooh, ooh oohaa
Come on, mama, mamaaooh

Go mother bird, Go mother bird, Go mother bird
