🎤 LYRICS
(Vese 1)
Xa imvula ibetha emnyango wam
Xa iinkuni ziphela emgodini
Xa ilizwi lika mama lisithi "qina mntwan’am"
Ndiyaphakama, ndisagxina, ndihamba phambili

Amany’ amadoda awela endleleni
Kodwa mna ndiyabamb’ imfakamfele
Ndibambe ngebhongo, ndigqolozele ikamva
Ngeentliziyo ezikrwada, sakhula apha

(Chorus)
Siyema, siyema, naphezu kwentlungu
Siyema, siyema, sihlala siqinile
Ingoma yethu ayisokuze iphele
Siyema njalo, siyema ngamandla

(Vese 2)
Ndikhumbula uTata esithi:
“Umthi omkhulu ukhula kancinci”
Sasingenamali kodwa sasinobuntu
Inkaba yethu iselwandle lwentlungu

Siyabhalela imbali ngenyembezi zethu
Sikhala ngeentlungu, siphakamisa ilizwi
Ubunzima abubuyi, kodwa ubuqhawe buyakhula
Sizalwa ngumzabalazo, siyakhula kuso

(Chorus)
Siyema, siyema, naphezu kwentlungu
Siyema, siyema, sihlala siqinile
Ingoma yethu ayisokuze iphele
Siyema njalo, siyema ngamandla

(Bridge)
Xa ilanga litshona, sincedana ngezandla
Xa umzuzu ubuhlungu, sikhumbuza amandla
Silima ithemba, sivuna uxolo
Inyani yempilo ikwiingoma zethu

(Outro Chorus)
Siyema, siyema, njengeentsika zobomi
Siyema, siyema, akukho nto ingasivuthulula
Ingoma yethu yimbali yethu
Siyema njalo, siyema singoyiki
