BC: Ingonyama nengw' enamabala	[Here is a lion and a tiger]

MS: Night
And the spirit of life
Calling

	(Oh, oh, iyo)
Mamela				[Listen]
	(Oh, oh, iyo)

And a voice
With the fear of a child
Answers

	(Oh, oh, iyo)
Oh, mamela			[Listen]
	(Oh, oh, iyo)

BC: Ubukhosi bo khokho		[Throne of the ancestors]
We ndodana ye sizwe sonke	[Oh, son of the nation)]

MS: Wait
There's no mountain too great
	(Oh, oh, iyo)
Hear the words and have faith
	(Oh, oh, iyo)
Have faith

BC: Hela hey mamela			[Hey, listen]

(Chorus)
MS: He lives in you
He lives in me
He watches over
Everything we see
Into the water
Into the truth
In your reflection
He lives in you

BC: Ingonyama nengw' enamabala	[Here is a lion and a tiger]
