Ikliphu Yevidiyo
Ingoma
Mm-mm
– Mm-mm
There’s lots of fish out in the pond
– Kukho iintlanzi ezininzi echibini
In the oceans and the rivers and in all the waterfalls
– Elwandle nasemilanjeni nakuzo zonke iingxangxasi
But if I’m made for land and not the sea at all
– Kodwa ukuba ndenzelwe umhlaba hayi ulwandle kwaphela
Could I crawl and find some kind Neanderthal?
– Ndingakhasa kwaye ndifumane uhlobo Lwe-Neanderthal?
What if I’m from outer space?
– Kuthekani ukuba ndivela ngaphandle?
And I have fire in my bones and in my veins?
– Kwaye ndinomlilo emathanjeni am nasemithanjeni yam?
I let it show and scare my suitors far away
– Ndivumele ukuba ndibonise kwaye ndoyikise iisuti zam kude
Leave them traumatized with visions of its glow behind my face
– Bashiye bebuhlungu ngemibono yokukhanya kwabo ngasemva kobuso bam
They say that God makes no mistakes, but I might disagree
– Bathi Uthixo akazenzi iimpazamo, kodwa ndiyavumelana
When I outstretch my empty hand
– Xa ndisolula isandla sam esingenanto
I watch them build society, domesticated land
– Ndibabukele ukwakha uluntu, umhlaba wasekhaya
It goes according to the plan
– Ihambisana nesicwangciso
While they’re in paradise, I’m exiled in the sand
– While i’m in paradise, i’m exited in paradise
If everyone has someone, then the math just isn’t right
– Ukuba wonke umntu unalo, ngoko izibalo azilunganga
And I’m the only outlier, the lonely archetype
– I’m the only one sweatshirt-unisex sweatshirt
If everything is by design, well, I might disagree
– Ukuba yonke into ihamba kakuhle, ndingavumelana
You all know something that I don’t
– Nonke niyazi into endingayaziyo
You all learned something that I fear I’ll never know
– Nonke nifunde into endinoloyiko lokuba andisoze ndazi
You all grew body parts I fear I’ll never grow
– Nonke nikhule ngamalungu omzimba ndiyesaba ukuba andiyi kukhula
You all know something that I don’t
– Nonke niyazi into endingayaziyo
You all know something that I don’t
– Nonke niyazi into endingayaziyo
You all know something that I don’t
– Nonke niyazi into endingayaziyo
What if I’m just cosmic dust?
– Kuthekani ukuba ndiyi-cosmetology nje?
Put me in a metal box that’s bound to rust
– Ndibeke kwibhokisi yentsimbi ebotshelelwe kumhlwa
Shoot me into space and leave me to combust
– Ndidubule emajukujukwini kwaye undishiye ukuba nditshise
Return to earth and just dissolve into its crust
– Buyela emhlabeni kwaye unyibilike nje kuqweqwe lwayo
Well, I was born all by myself
– Ndazalwa ndedwa
It’s not unlikely that I’ll die that way as well
– Akunakulindeleka ukuba ndife ngaloo ndlela
