Asimbonanga

Asimbonanga, Asimbonanga
Asimbonang’ umandela thina
Laph’ ekhona
Laph’ ehleli khona

Oh the sea is cold and the
Sky is grey
Look across the island
Into the bay
We are all islands till
Comes the day

We cross the burning water
A seagull wing across the sea
Broken silence is what I dream
Who has the words to close the distance
Between you and me

Asimbonanga, Asimbonanga
Asimbonang’ umandela thina
Laph’ ekhona
Laph’ ehleli khona

La wafela khona Hey wena
Hey wena nawe
Sizofika nini la’ siyakhona
