🎤 LYRICS
[INTRO]
(Humming)
Hmmmmm...
Sibuyile...
Hmmmmm...
Ekhaya...
Ngaphansi kwezinkanyezi...
Sibuyile...
[HOOK]
Sibuyile ekhaya
Sibuyile ekhaya
Izandla zihlangene
Izinhliziyo ziyacula
Sibuyile ekhaya
Sibuyile ekhaya
Emva kweminyaka
Siphinde sahlangana
[VERSE 1]
Ngakhumbula indlela
Eya emzini wethu
Ngakhumbula amazwi
Abadala bethu
Izintaba zisamile
Njengoba zazinjalo
Nomoya wasekhaya
Usangibiza njalo
Ngafika ngibona
Ubuso engabukhumbulayo
Ngabona ukumamatheka
Engangikulangazelela
[HOOK]
Sibuyile ekhaya
Sibuyile ekhaya
Izandla zihlangene
Izinhliziyo ziyacula
Sibuyile ekhaya
Sibuyile ekhaya
Emva kweminyaka
Siphinde sahlangana
[VERSE 2]
Abanye bahamba kude
Baya emadolobheni
Abanye bawela ulwandle
Befuna ikusasa
Kodwa uma sihlangana
Kuyafana namanje
Uthando lwasekhaya
Aluguquki neze
Sihleka ndawonye
Njengasezinsukwini zakudala
Sicula ndawonye
Kuze kuphume inkanyezi yokusa
[BRIDGE]
Baba...
Mama...
Siyabonga...
Ngothando...
Baba...
Mama...
Siyabonga...
Ngasekhaya...
[FINAL HOOK]
Sibuyile ekhaya
Sibuyile ekhaya
Izandla zihlangene
Izinhliziyo ziyacula
Sibuyile ekhaya
Sibuyile ekhaya
Ngaphansi kwezinkanyezi
Sihlala sindawonye
Sibuyile ekhaya...
