(happy is she who is married , my child , you have found marriage
Umuzi wakiwe ngenyembi m’ntamani
( a home is built on tears ,
Bazokutshela uzengobuthakathi m’ntanami
(your in-laws will say you are a witch
Ugabanaki, m’ntanami ungabanaki
(don’t listen to them my child , don’t give in , ignore them
Khumbula isithembo sakho
(remember your hope and the promise you made
Khumbula indoda yakho
(remember your husband who you love
Khumbula isithembo sakho
(remember your hope and your promise
Ungabanaki m’ntanami
(ignore those who bring you down , my child )
CHROUS:
Tears are falling down like rain
I will never be the same
