Mother

I miss Mom
Nothing's working anymore (I miss Mom)
I can't anymore
I miss Mom
Nothing's working anymore
I miss Mom
 
They keep saying "such an old man crying for his mom"
Hawu1, guys you'll never understand
Such an old man crying for his mom
Hawu guys you'll never understand
 
She'll be happy when I return
Exclaiming that Shembe2 is alive
With all the road accidents my child I'm happy you made it back safely
Put your bag there emsamu3
Get grandma's incense from the rondavel
So I can contact the ancestors and tell them you're back in one piece
The rain is pouring here back home, we're finished here we're corn stovers
When you come back from eGoli4 please bring me a heater 'cause it's clear you'll be the one to bury me
You know mom, you've got jokes
You'll never leave me while I still love you
It'd be a blessing to me Mom if you'd be there when I get married
 
'Cause You'll be the one to advise me
When it's getting difficult in marriage
'Cause You'll be the one who'll be able to console me
When it's getting difficult in marriage
 
I can't anymore, I can't anymore, I can't anymore
I miss Mom
I can't anymore, I can't anymore, I can't anymore
I miss Mom
 
They keep saying such an old man crying for his mom
Hawu guys you'll never understand
Such an old man crying for his mom
Hawu guys you'll never understand
 
What I love about home
Is that at home you don't get in with money (with money, yeah yeah)
Even if I'd be jobless Mom loves me without anything
(She loves me with nothing at all)
Even if the world would beat me up she'd console me and say my child
Don't cry (don't cry)
You look tired let me fetch some food baba sit down (sit down)
 
I can't anymore, I can't anymore, I can't anymore
I miss Mom
I can't anymore, I can't anymore, I can't anymore
I miss Mom
 
They keep saying such an old man crying for his mom
Hawu guys you'll never understand
Such an old man crying for his mom
Hawu guys you'll never understand
