“Isigubhu SikaGogo” lyrics
(Shaya!)
Isigubhu sikaGogo
Isigubhu sikaGogo, ekhoneni lendlu
Wathi kimi "uma ngihamba, shaya"
Namuhla ekuseni, ngiyashaya
Umsindo uyagcwala, ngiyezwa
Ngizwa izwi lakhe emoyeni
Ngizwa ukuhleka kwakhe
Isigubhu siyakhuluma
Ngiyalalela, ngiyashaya
Shaya isigubhu (shaya!)
Shaya isigubhu (shaya!)
Bayezwa okhokho
Shaya isigubhu (shaya!)
The whole village wakes to the sound
Aunties dancing, feet on the ground
I feel her hand on my shoulder now
Ngiyabonga, Gogo, I know how
Children running from every door
Old men stamping on the floor
The sun comes up over the hill
Gogo's drum is talking still
Shaya isigubhu (shaya!)
Shaya isigubhu (shaya!)
Bayezwa okhokho
Shaya isigubhu (shaya!)
Angiyikhohlwa
Angiyikhohlwa
Uma ngishaya
Ukhona
Shaya isigubhu (shaya!)
Shaya isigubhu (shaya!)
Bayezwa okhokho
Shaya isigubhu (shaya!)
Shaya! (shaya!)
Shaya! (shaya!)
Bayezwa okhokho
Shaya!
Ngiyabonga, Gogo (shaya!)
Isigubhu
