Written by MARTHA LEAH NANGALAMA
Some of us have lost dozens of family, friends and colleagues during this Covid Pandemic. Many of us will also soon die because of our sheer stupidity. OR fear. I am terribly scared of needles.
Hence the sad songs. Tears of joy, pain, hurt and gratitude. To have lived and loved. Known profound love and deep pain. For the gift of breathing. Pain is a gift too. It hurts because we are human. HE LIVES IN ME…

S/He lives in you.
He Lives in You
Song by Lebo M.
Ingonyama nengw’ enamabala
Ingonyama nengw’ enamabala
Ingonyama nengw’ enamabala

Nezwi elinoyiko lwe ntsana
Liyaphendula oh, mamela
Ubukhosi bo khokho

Song by Lebo M.
A lion and a leopard
Ingonyama nengw’ enamabala
A lion and a leopard
Ingonyama nengw’ enamabala
A lion and a leopard
Ingonyama nengw’ enamabala
A lion and a leopard
Ingonyama nengw’ enamabala
Night and wind of life will call you
Ubusuku no moya unobomi buyakubiza
Listen
Mamela
And a frightened baby’s voice
Nezwi elinoyiko lwe ntsana
It answers oh, listen
Liyaphendula oh, mamela
Ancestor kingdom
Ubukhosi bo khokho
Stop, no weight (hela, hela, hela)
Yima, akukho bunzima (hela, hela, hela)
Hear these words and live in hope, well
Yiva lamazwi uhlale ethembeni, hebo
