Hayi ndibonile
No I saw
Ndatsho mna ndavela
I said I came out
Ndabuya ndathi ndim lo
I came back and said that I was the one
Kwathula kwathi tu
There was a long silence
Oh hayi ndifundile
Oh no I read
Ndabuya mna ndangena
I came back and I went in
Ngoku ndithi ndim lo
Now I say here I am
Bayandijonga
They look at me
Ngoba ndithi ndikhulile ndikhulile ndikhulile
Because I say I've grown up I've grown up
Ndithi ndikhulile ndikhulile ndikhulile
I say grown up grown up grown up
Ndithi ndikhulile ndikhulile ndikhulile
I say grown up grown up grown up
Ngoba ndithi ndikhulile ndikhulile ndikhulile
Because I say I've grown up I've grown up
Oooh I just wanna live my life
I wanna live my life
Oh I just wanna be myself
Ndiphil'ubomi bam
I live my life
Oh lendlela inde inameva
Oh this long road with thorns
Mna ndizokwenze njani
How am I going to do it
Oh lendlela inde kwa ibanzi
Oh this road is long and wide
Ndifun'ubomi bam
I want my life
Ngafika ngisasemncane mina
I arrived at a young age
Ugogo wami wathi
My grandmother said
Winnie mntwanam, Winnie mntwanam
Winnie my child, Winnie my child
Winnie mntwanami mntwanami mntwanami
Winnie my baby my baby my baby
Ndiyabulela ngothando lwakho
Thank you for your love
Ndiyabulela ngeemfundiso zakho
Thank you for your teachings
Ndiyabulela ngakho konk'ongenzele khona
Thank you for all you have done for me
O mina

O mina, mina O mina
Oooh I just wanna live my life
I wanna live my life
Oh I just wanna be myself
Ndiphil'ubomi bam

Oh lendlela inde inameva

Mna ndizokwenze njani
How am I going to do it
Oh lendlela inde kwa ibanzi
Oh this road is long and wide
Ndifun'ubomi bam
I want my life
Ngoba ndithi ndikhulile ndikhulile ndikhulile
Because I say I've grown up I've grown up
Ndithi ndikhulile ndikhulile ndikhulile
I say grown up grown up grown up
Ndithi ndikhulile ndikhulile ndikhulile
I say grown up grown up grown up
Ngoba ndithi ndikhulile ndikhulile ndikhulile
