Ncooo, jonga phezulu!
Ubona ntoni?
Kusasa … Oongqatyana neehadeda ezinkulu.
Emini ... Amabhabhathane abhabhazela
phezu kweentyatyambo.
Ingcungcu ngomsila wayo omde.
Intukwane ngekhola yayo
ebomvu krwe.
Undyila entingela phezulu
esibhakabhakeni.
Emva kwemini ...
Iinyosi zibhuzela ngakwindlu yazo.
Ngokuye litshona ilanga ... Amarhanisi ayabhabha
ebuyela ekhaya.
Ukukhazimla kwezibane
zenqwelomoya egcwele abantu.
Amalulwane esitya izinambuzane
njengesidlo sangokuhlwa.
Xa kumnyama kukuhle …
Isikhova sinanazela entsimini.
Inkwenkwezi ebinzayo.
Nkqu sesisemaphupheni,
kuninzi esikubonayo!
