Thumel' imali
Thumel' imali, tata
Thumeli' imali
Thumeli' imali ekhaya
Bek'noba njani na ngaphandle komama?
Kalok'utata uye wasishiya nomama
Uth' uzobuya, usayophangel' imali
Kuna namhlanje akakabuyel' ekhaya

Akazang' abuye namali
Akazang' abuyel' ekhaya
Akazang' abuye namali
Tata, buyel' ekhaya
Syambulel' umama ngokusikhulisa kwakhe
Kungekho mali, umama ebexolel' u'ngatyi
Singaka nje thina ngumama yedwa
Kodwa namhlanje ndithi siyabulela mama
Ngob' utata akazang' abuye namali
Akazang' abuyel' ekhaya
Akazanga buye namali
Tata, buyel' ekhaya

Akazang' abuye namali
Akazang' abuyel' ekhaya
Akazang' abuye namali
Tata, buyel' ekhaya
Kulungile, hlala janjalo
Kulungile, siphila kanjalo
Kulungile, ubomi buhamba kanjalo
Tata, buyel' ekhaya
Oko wemkayo akazang' abuye namali
Akazang' abuyel ekhaya
Akazang' abuye namali
Tata, buyel' ekhaya
Oko wemkaya akazang' abuye namali
Sikhule singaka, akazang' abuyel' ekhaya
Sasimlindile, akazang' anuye namalu
Tata, buyel' ekhaya
Ooh! Buyel' ekhaya x3
Tata, buyel' ekhaya
(Repeat)
