From the recording Izibongo
Lyrics
Translated lyrics from original language
Beautiful ocean, my honey, wormwood that healed me.
My heart has been washed, to be white as snow
I was lost, you found me
I was naked, you clothed me
I slept on the street, you brought me to your house
I laid in prison, you visited me
You are a rock
My love, come in
A blessed day to you
Sing, ululate, play the harp
You are the hero that carried South Africa on your back
