“Usuku Lwethu” lyrics
Usuku lwethu
Masijabule
Usuqedile ukufunda
Sasikubona usebenza
Abanye besaphumile
Wena uvuka ekuseni
Namhlanje sikulindile
Zonke izihlobo zifikile
Khulula lelo bhantshi
Sifuna ukukubona lapha
Usuku lwethu
Masenze umsindo
Usuku lwethu
Masijabule sonke
Usuku lwethu
Masenze umsindo
Usuku lwethu
Masijabule sonke
Uthi awukwazi ukudansa
Siyakubona uyazama
Uqala kancane nje
Abanye sebekulandela
Umama useyasukuma
Nobaba useshaya izandla
Lona ngumsebenzi wakho
Siyaziqhenya ngawe
Usuku lwethu
Masenze umsindo
Usuku lwethu
Masijabule sonke
Sikubonile
Sasikhona
Siyakubongela
Namhlanje sikanye nawe
Usuku lwethu
Usuku lwethu
Masenze umsindo
Usuku lwethu
Usuku lwethu
Masijabule sonke
Usuku lwethu
Masenze umsindo
Usuku lwethu
Masijabule sonke
Masijabule
Sikanye nawe
Usuku lwethu
Masijabule
