Mamana
Hambi no vona waku ni nyoxissa
Timbilu to banana loku ndzi dzimuka wene mamana
Lava hinkwavo valanguiwike hi mbilu yanga
Akwaku ava lunganga mamana
Lava hinkwavo valanguiwike hi mbilu yanga
Akwaku ava lunganga mamana
Oh hiyo io io io io
Niza ni tsama lani ni siku lani niya tsama le
Nani navela ku zhulissa moya wanga mamana
Niza ni tsama lani ni siku lani niya tsama le
Nani navela ku zhulissa moya wanga mamana
Oh hiyo io io io io
Kassi udjula niku yini mamana
Kassi udjula niku yini mamana
Kassi udjula niku yini mamana
Swaku nienctha hikuni sossotela swanga nova ngwana
Swaku nienctha hikuni possita, swanga nova papela
Swaku yientcha hikuni chavissa swanga nova mpahla mamana
Nili vona hi wene'
Nili vona hi wene
Nili vona hi wene mamana
Mamana mama e mama o
Nili vona hi wene'
Nili vona hi wene
Nili vona hi wene mamana

Mother
The moon is shining on my face
I wake up in the morning and see you, mother
Everything is reflected in my eyes
I see you, mother
Everything is reflected in my eyes
I see you, mother
Oh hiyo io io io io
When will I see you again, what day will I see you
I want to feel your spirit, mother
When will I see you again, what day will I see you
I want to feel your spirit, mother
Oh hiyo io io io io
Why did you leave me, mother
Why did you leave me, mother
Why did you leave me, mother
So that I can't hear your voice anymore
So that I can't see you, so that I can't touch you, mother
I saw you in my dream
I saw you in my dream
I saw you in my dream, mother
Mother, mama oh mama
I saw you in my dream
I saw you in my dream
I saw you in my dream, mother
Oh hiyo io io io io
