Ikliphu Yevidiyo
Ingoma
The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful
– Imicu emehlweni akho ukuba umbala kubo emangalisayo
Stop me and steal my breath
– Stop my breath ukulele
And emeralds from mountains that thrust towards the sky
– Kwaye ii emeralds ezivela ezintabeni ezijonge esibhakabhakeni
Never revealing their depth
– Ungaze utyhile ubunzulu babo
And tell me that we belong together
– Kwaye undixelele ukuba singamalungu
Dress it up with the trappings of love
– Nxiba kunye nemigibe yothando
I’ll be captivated, I’ll hang from your lips
– I’ll fly away, i’ll pile on your lips
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above
– Endaweni yeentlungu zentliziyo ezixhonywe phezulu
I’ll be your cryin’ shoulder
– I’ll be your cry ukulele
I’ll be love’s suicide
– I’ll be loving suicide sweatshirt
And I’ll be better when I’m older
– Kwaye ndiya kuba ngcono xa ndikhulile
I’ll be the greatest fan of your life
– Ndiza kuba ngoyena mntu ubalaseleyo ebomini bakho
And rain falls angry on the tin roof
– Kwaye imvula inomsindo kuphahla lwetoti
As we lie awake in my bed
– Silala embhedeni wethu
And you’re my survival, you’re my living proof
– Nguwe olithemba lam, nguwe olithemba lam
My love is alive and not dead
– Uthando lwam luyaphila kwaye alufanga
And tell me that we belong together
– Kwaye undixelele ukuba singamalungu
Dress it up with the trappings of love
– Nxiba kunye nemigibe yothando
I’ll be captivated, I’ll hang from your lips
– I’ll fly away, i’ll pile on your lips
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above
– Endaweni yeentlungu zentliziyo ezixhonywe phezulu
And I’ll be your cryin’ shoulder
– I’ll be your cry ukulele
I’ll be love’s suicide
– I’ll be loving suicide sweatshirt
I’ll be better when I’m older
– Ndiya kuba ngcono xa ndikhulile
I’ll be the greatest fan of your life
– Ndiza kuba ngoyena mntu ubalaseleyo ebomini bakho
And I’ve dropped out, I’ve burned up, I’ve fought my way back from the dead
– Kwaye ndiphumile, ndatshisa, ndalwa indlela yam emva kwabafileyo
I tuned in, I turned on, remembered the thing that you said
– Ndangena, ndangena, ndakhumbula into oyithethileyo
And I’ll be your cryin’ shoulder
– I’ll be your cry ukulele
I’ll be love’s suicide
– I’ll be loving suicide sweatshirt
And I’ll be better when I’m older
– Kwaye ndiya kuba ngcono xa ndikhulile
I’ll be the greatest fan of your life
– Ndiza kuba ngoyena mntu ubalaseleyo ebomini bakho
And I’ll be your cryin’ shoulder
– I’ll be your cry ukulele
I’ll be love’s suicide
– I’ll be loving suicide sweatshirt
And I’ll be better when I’m older
– Kwaye ndiya kuba ngcono xa ndikhulile
I’ll be the greatest fan of your life
– Ndiza kuba ngoyena mntu ubalaseleyo ebomini bakho
The greatest fan of your life
– Oyena mntu ubalaseleyo ebomini bakho
