“Ngibonise Okwakho” lyrics
Ngibonise okwakho
Ngifuna ukubona
Ufike wahlala phansi
Uthi awudansi wena
Kodwa izinyawo zakho
Sezihamba ngaphansi
Susa isihlalo kancane
Sikwenzele indawo
Awudingi ukusilandela
Yenza ngendlela yakho
Ngibonise okwakho
Ngifuna ukubona
Ngibonise okwakho
Yenza ngendlela yakho
Ngibonise okwakho
Ngifuna ukubona
Ngibonise okwakho
Yenza ngendlela yakho
Manje usuphakathi
Nathi siyakubuka
Leli gxathu elisha
Ngisazama ukulifunda
Ungasheshi kangaka
Phinda futhi kancane
Bengithi ngiyakwazi
Kanti ngisazofunda
Ngibonise okwakho
Ngifuna ukubona
Ngibonise okwakho
Yenza ngendlela yakho
Phinda futhi
Sifuna ukulibona
Phinda futhi
Nathi sesiyazama
Ngibonise okwakho
Ngifuna ukubona
Ngibonise okwakho
Yenza ngendlela yakho
Ngibonise okwakho
Ngifuna ukubona
Ngibonise okwakho
Yenza ngendlela yakho
Manje sengiyabona
Manje sengiyakwazi
Ngibonise okwakho
Sisazodansa nawe
