Ividyo Kliphu
Lyrics
The cold wind is blowing and the streets are getting dark
– Umoya obandayo uyavunguza futhi imigwaqo iyaba mnyama
I’m writting you a letter and I don’t know where to start
– Ngikubhalela incwadi futhi angazi ukuthi ngizoqala kuphi
The bells will be ringing Saint John, The Divine
– Izinsimbi ziyobe zikhala Ujohane Ongcwele, Ongcwele
I get a little lonely every year around this time
– Ngiba nesizungu kancane unyaka ngamunye ngalesi sikhathi
The music plays all night in Little Italy
– Umculo udlalwa ubusuku Bonke Elittle Italy
The lights will be going up on old Rockafella’s tree
– Izibani zizokhanya esihlahleni sikarockafella omdala
People window shoppin’ on Fifth Avenue
– Abantu abathenga ngefasitela Ku-Fifth Avenue
All I want for Christmas is you
– Konke engikufunayo Ngokhisimusi nguwe
I wanna know
– Ngifuna ukwazi
Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas
– Akekho okufanele abe yedwa Ngokhisimusi
Where do lonely hearts go?
– Izinhliziyo ezinesizungu ziyaphi?
Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas
– Akekho okufanele abe yedwa Ngokhisimusi
Because nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas
– Ngoba akekho okufanele abe yedwa Ngokhisimusi
Things are different since you’ve been here last
– Izinto zihlukile ngoba ubulokhu ulapha okokugcina
Childhood dreaming is a thing of the past
– Ukuphupha ebuntwaneni kuyinto yesikhathi esidlule
I hope you can bring us some cheer this year
– Ngithemba ukuthi ungasilethela injabulo kulo nyaka
The mothers and children in the street again
– Omama nezingane emgwaqweni futhi
Do you remember sleigh ridin’ in the snow?
– Uyakhumbula ukugibela isileyi eqhweni?
And dancin’ all night to “Baby, please come home”
– Futhi ukudansa ubusuku bonke ukuze “Baby, sicela ubuye ekhaya”
Today’s celebration is bittersweet
– Umkhosi wanamuhla unoshukela omuncu
There’s mothers and children in the street
– Kukhona omama nezingane emgwaqweni
I wanna know
– Ngifuna ukwazi
Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas
– Akekho okufanele abe yedwa Ngokhisimusi
Where do lonely hearts go?
– Izinhliziyo ezinesizungu ziyaphi?
Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas
– Akekho okufanele abe yedwa Ngokhisimusi
Because nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas
– Ngoba akekho okufanele abe yedwa Ngokhisimusi
I’m all grown up, and it’s the same you’ll see
– Ngikhulile, futhi kuyafana nalokho ozokubona
I’m writing you this letter, ’cause I still believe
– Ngikubhalela le ncwadi, ngoba ngisakholelwa
Dear Santa, I’ve been good this year
– Santa othandekayo, bengilokhu ngimuhle kulo nyaka
Can’t you stay a little while with me right here?
– Awukwazi ukuhlala isikhashana nami lapha?
I wanna know
– Ngifuna ukwazi
I wanna know
– Ngifuna ukwazi
Where do lonely hearts go?
– Izinhliziyo ezinesizungu ziyaphi?
Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas
– Akekho okufanele abe yedwa Ngokhisimusi
Nobody ought to be all alone on Christmas
– Akekho okufanele abe yedwa Ngokhisimusi
Nobody ought to be all alone
– Akekho okufanele abe yedwa
Nobody ought to be alone on Christmas (alone on Christmas)
– Akekho okufanele abe yedwa Ngokhisimusi (yedwa Ngokhisimusi)
Nobody ought to be alone (I wanna know)
– Akekho okufanele abe yedwa (i wanna know)
Nobody ought to be alone (Where do lonely hearts go?)
– Akekho okufanele abe yedwa (Izinhliziyo ezinesizungu ziyaphi?)
Nobody ought to be alone
– Akekho okufanele abe yedwa
