Ividyo Kliphu
Lyrics
Oh, they say people come, say people go
– Oh, bathi abantu beza, bathi abantu bahambe
This particular diamond was extra special
– Leli dayimane elithile lalikhetheke kakhulu
And though you might be gone, and the world may not know
– Futhi nakuba ungase uhambe, futhi izwe lingase lingazi
Still I see you celestial
– Noma kunjalo ngiyakubona kusezulwini
Like a lion you ran, a goddess you rolled
– Njengengonyama wagijima, unkulunkulukazi wagingqa
Like an eagle you circled in perfect purple
– Njengokhozi wawuzungeza ngombala onsomi ophelele
So how come things move on? How come cars don’t slow?
– Ngakho izinto ziqhubeka kanjani? Kanjani woza izimoto musa slow?
When it feels like the end of my world
– Lapho kuzwakala njengokuphela kwezwe lami
When I should but I can’t let you go
– Lapho kufanele kodwa angikwazi ukukuyeka
But when I’m cold, cold
– Kodwa lapho ngibanda, ngibanda
Yeah, when I’m cold, cold
– Yebo, lapho ngibanda, ngibanda
There’s a light that you give me when I’m in shadow
– Kukhona ukukhanya onginika kona lapho ngisemthunzini
There’s a feelin’ within me, everglow
– Kukhona umuzwa ngaphakathi kimi, everglow
Like brothers in blood, sisters who ride
– Njengabazalwane abasegazini, odade abagibelayo
And we swore on that night we’d be friends ’til we die
– Futhi safunga ngalobo busuku ukuthi sasizoba abangane kuze kube yilapho sifa
But the changin’ of winds and the way waters flow
– Kodwa ukushintsha kwemimoya nendlela amanzi ageleza ngayo
Life is short as the fallin’ of snow
– Ukuphila kufushane njengokuwa kweqhwa
And now I’m gonna miss you, I know
– Futhi manje ngizokukhumbula, ngiyazi
But when I’m cold, cold
– Kodwa lapho ngibanda, ngibanda
In water rolled, salt
– Emanzini agingqiwe, usawoti
And I know that you’re with me and the way you will show
– Futhi ngiyazi ukuthi unami nendlela ozobonisa ngayo
And you’re with me wherever I go
– Futhi unami nomaphi lapho ngiya khona
And you give me this feelin’, this everglow
– Futhi unginika lo muzwa, lokhu kukhanya okuhlala njalo
Oh, what I wouldn’t give for just a moment to hold
– Oh, lokho engingeke ngikunikeze isikhashana nje ukuba ngikubambe
Yeah, I live for this feelin’, this everglow
– Yebo, ngiphilela lo muzwa, lokhu kukhanya okuhlala njalo
So if you love someone, you should let them know
– Ngakho uma uthanda othile, kufanele ubazise
Oh, the light that you left me will everglow
– Oh, ukukhanya ongishiyile kuyohlala kukhanya
