BAWO! KUDALA SI GCEL 'INKULUEKO
(Lord! We ask for peace)
Si nje nge Limpopo
(We are like the Limpopo)
LIZO QALA NIN 'ITHEMBA LETHU?
(When will our hope begin?)
Limpopo umfula wetu
(Limpopo our river)
BAWO! SIPHI ISITHEMBISO?
(Lord! Where is the promise?)
Re tshwana le Limpopo
(We are like the Limpopo)
ZIZO FIKA NINI ZONKE?
(When will they all come?)
Limpopo molapo wa rona
(Limpopo our beloved river)
AMANZI A YA PHEZULU EZIBHARABHAKENI
(Water rises to the sky)
NJALO NATHI SI KHISHWA E MAKHAYENI
(In the same way we are taken from our homelands)
SI WELA NJSNG 'IMVULA E MHLABENI
(Like rain, we fall on strange land)
SI HLAKAZWA E MOYEN
(We are scattered with the wind)
