Ikliphu Yevidiyo
Ingoma
They say, “The holy water’s watered down
– Bathi, ” amanzi angcwele ankcenkceshelwa
And this town’s lost its faith
– Kwaye le dolophu ilahlekelwe lukholo lwayo
Our colors will fade eventually”
– Imibala yethu iya kuphela ekugqibeleni”
So, if our time is runnin’ out
– Ukuba ixesha lethu liphelile
Day after day
– Usuku emva kosuku
We’ll make the mundane our masterpiece
– Siza kwenza i-mundane yethu yobugcisa
Oh my, my
– Kwakum-kwakum
Oh my, my love
– Uthando lwam, uthando lwam
I take one look at you
– Ndijonge kuwe
You’re takin’ me out of the ordinary
– Undikhuphe ngaphandle kwesiqhelo
I want you layin’ me down ’til we’re dead and buried
– I want you layin’ me down ‘ side sife size singcwatywe
On the edge of your knife, stayin’ drunk on your vine
– Nxilile emthini wakho, nxilile emthini wakho
The angels up in the clouds are jealous knowin’ we found
– Izithunywa zezulu emafini zinomona sazi ukuba sifumene
Somethin’ so out of the ordinary
– Into ethile ngaphandle kwesiqhelo
You got me kissin’ the ground of your sanctuary
– You iook iike an okay kissing umhlaba wengcwele yakho
Shatter me with your touch, oh Lord, return me to dust
– Ndibuyisele eluthulini, Nkosi yam, ndibuyisele eluthulini
The angels up in the clouds are jealous knowin’ we found
– Izithunywa zezulu emafini zinomona sazi ukuba sifumene
Hopeless hallelujah
– Haleluya engenathemba
On this side of Heaven’s gate
– Kweli cala Lezulu
Oh, my life, how do ya
– Ubomi bam, njani na
Breathe and take my breath away?
– Phefumla kwaye uthathe umoya wam?
At your altar, I will pray
– Kwisibingelelo sakho, ndiya kuthandaza
You’re the sculptor, I’m the clay
– You’re the sculptor, i’m the clay sweatshirt
Oh my, my
– Kwakum-kwakum
You’re takin’ me out of the ordinary
