Ividyo Kliphu
Lyrics
Frosty the snowman was a jolly happy soul
– Ufrosty the snowman wayengumphefumulo ojabulayo ojabulayo
With a corncob pipe and a button nose
– Ngepayipi le corncob nekhala lenkinobho
And two eyes made out of coal
– Namehlo amabili enziwe ngamalahle
Frosty the snowman is a fairy tale, they say
– I-Frosty the snowman iyinganekwane, bathi
He was made of snow but the children know
– Wayenziwe ngeqhwa kodwa izingane ziyazi
How he came to life one day
– Indlela aphila ngayo ngolunye usuku
There must have been some magic in
– Kumelwe ukuba kwakukhona umlingo othile
That old silk hat they found
– Leso sigqoko esidala sesilika abasithola
For when they placed it on his head
– Ngoba lapho beyibeka ekhanda lakhe
He began to dance around
– Waqala ukudansa
Oh, Frosty the snowman
– O, Frosty umuntu weqhwa
Was alive as he could be
– Wayephila ngendlela ayengaphila ngayo
And the children say he could laugh and play
– Futhi izingane zithi angahleka futhi adlale
Just the same as you and me
– Okufanayo nawe nami
Thumpety thump thump
– Ukushaywa ngesibhakela
Thumpety thump thump
– Ukushaywa ngesibhakela
Look at Frosty go
– Bheka frosty go
Thumpety thump thump
– Ukushaywa ngesibhakela
Thumpety thump thump
– Ukushaywa ngesibhakela
Over the hills of snow
– Phezu kwamagquma eqhwa
Ooh Frosty the snowman
– Ooh Frosty umuntu weqhwa
Knew the sun was hot that day
– Wayazi ukuthi ilanga lalishisa ngalolo suku
So he said, “Let’s run and we’ll have some fun
– Ngakho wathi, ” Masigijime futhi sizozijabulisa
Now before I melt away.”
– Manje ngaphambi kokuba ngincibilike.”
Down to the village
– Phansi edolobhaneni
With a broomstick in his hand
– Ephethe induku esandleni sakhe
Running here and there all around the square
– Ukugijima lapha nalaphaya nxazonke zesikwele
Saying “catch me if you can!”
– Ethi ” ngibambe uma ungakwazi!”
He led them down the streets of town
– Wabaholela emigwaqweni yasedolobheni
Right to the traffic cop
– Ilungelo lephoyisa lomgwaqo
And he only paused a moment when
– Futhi wayeka isikhashana nje lapho
He heard him holler “Stop!”
– Wamuzwa ememeza ” Yeka!”
Oh, Frosty the snowman
– O, Frosty umuntu weqhwa
Had to hurry on his way
– Kwadingeka asheshise endleleni yakhe
But he waved goodbye, saying
– Kodwa wavalelisa, ethi
“Don’t you cry, I’ll be back again someday.”
– “Ungakhali, ngizobuya futhi ngelinye ilanga.”
Thumpety thump thump
– Ukushaywa ngesibhakela
Thumpety thump thump
– Ukushaywa ngesibhakela
Look at Frosty go
– Bheka frosty go
Thumpety thump thump
– Ukushaywa ngesibhakela
Thumpety thump thump
– Ukushaywa ngesibhakela
Over the hills of snow!
– Phezu kwamagquma eqhwa!
