Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Vukan' ingathi nilele
Busuk' obungenalitha
Nzulu luthand' enhliz'weni
Ngeke side-, side-, side-
Sidesibe ngabant' abanye
Sidesibe ndaweni enye
Wathakath' ikhaya uLizzy
Ndenzeni ko- ndizifele
[Verse 2]
Side-, side-, sidesibe banye
Ndohlala ndikukhangela
Wandenzela phansi
Ekhaya undenzela phansi
[Verse 3]
Soze nd'vume ngamandl'am
Abasekhaya bahleli nam
Band'nqinisile band'vezisile
Nd'zobe ndihleli ndizitshayele, ndizimamele
Soze nd'vume ngamandl'am
Abasekhaya bahleli nam
Band'nqinisile band'vezisile
Nd'zobe ndihleli ndizitshayele
[Verse 4]
Hello, ninjani maqhawe
You know, ndithunyelwe
Nisale nomthinjane
Yilwani loludlame
[Verse 5]
Sasisabuya lana eGoli
Silindel' izimpendulo
Namhla nguwe, namhla nguwe
NguLululu waseMdansane
Ngulo inxeba esalishaya
Savuk' ekuseni senz'inkomo
Mna nawe safel' ebuntwini
Ndenze ndiqondisise
[Verse 6]
Side-, side-, sidesibe banye
Ndohlala ndikukhangela
Wandenzela phansi
Ekhaya undenzela phansi
[Verse 7]
Vukan' ingathi nilele
Busuk' obungenalitha
Nzulu luthand' enhliz'weni
Ngeke side-, side-, side-
