[Xhosa] Radiance

Lyrics

**[Intro — Warm Vocals, Rising Rhythm]**

Oh-oh-oh, khanya ilanga,  
Ihlabathi eliqaqambileyo kuthi sobabini.  
Sibambene, sikhwela phezulu,  
Amabhongo ezigidi esibhakabhakeni.  
Oh-oh-oh, uyayiva na ngoku?  
Ikamva libiza, apha nangoku!

**[Verse 1]**

Isikhanyiso sethemba sibaleka ebusuku,  
Amazwi amaninzi avuka.  
Apho kwakukho iindonga, ziyaqhakaza iibhlorho ezintsha,  
Sisonke sinokufikelela kwiingqonga.

NgeSweefin sivula iingcango imihla ngemihla,  
Amathuba amatsha akhanyisa indlela.  
Kusuka entliziyweni nganye, kumhlaba wonke,  
Ikamva eliqaqambileyo lisemagxeni ethu.

**[Pre-Chorus — Building Energy]**

Vakalelwa ngamandla, vakalelwa ngumlambo,  
Akukho mda kwiindawo esiya kuzo.  
Siphakamisane, sikhokhele indlela,  
Guqula ikamva libe ngumhla wanamhlanje.

Akukho ndlala, akukho loyiko,  
Umhlaba wethemba usondela.  
Ngamnye ngamunye, kunye,  
Sisonke sinokutshintsha umoya!

**[Chorus — Big, Joyful, Unforgettable]**

Oh-oh-oh, khanya ngeqhina lakho!  
Iphupha ngalinye, elakho nelam.  
Sinyuka kunye, iintliziyo zethu zibe nye,  
Ihlabathi eliqaqambileyo kuye wonke umntu!

Oh-oh-oh, moya wakho mawuphakame!  
Vula intliziyo nganye, vula umnyango wonke.  
NgeSweefin, amaphupha ethu mawazaliseke,  
Ubuninzi kum, ubuninzi kuwe!

Khanya, khanya, mabubone bonke,  
Ikamva elizele ngamathuba!  
Oh-oh-oh, siyakhanya,  
Sisonke siba lilanga!

**[Verse 2]**

Kumama wonke onamaphupha amaninzi,  
Kutata wonke ofuna uxolo olwandle.  
Kumntwana ngamnye oneenkwenkwezi emehlweni,  
Umhlaba wemimangaliso, ithuba lokuphakama.

Ukusuka ezindleleni zezilokishi ukuya ezitratweni,  
Ukusuka kwiinduli ukuya elwandle,  
NgeSweefin, amathuba ayakhula,  
Kwaye iphupha ngalinye lifumana indawo yokuchuma.

**[Pre-Chorus — Rising Harmonies]**

Vakalelwa ngamandla ngaphakathi,  
Umoya wethu mawube ngumkhokeli.  
Amandla amaninzi, intliziyo ibe nye,  
Isiqalo esitsha siqalile.

Isithembiso sexabiso, umhlaba wokurhweba,  
Ikamva elakhiwe ngamaphupha esiwenzileyo.  
Ilizwi ngalinye nesandla ngasinye,  
Sisonke sinokuma!

**[Chorus — Full Dance Energy]**

Oh-oh-oh, khanya ngeqhina lakho!  
Iphupha ngalinye, elakho nelam.  
Sinyuka kunye, iintliziyo zethu zibe nye,  
Ihlabathi eliqaqambileyo kuye wonke umntu!

Oh-oh-oh, moya wakho mawuphakame!  
Vula intliziyo nganye, vula umnyango wonke.  
NgeSweefin, amaphupha ethu mawazaliseke,  
Ubuninzi kum, ubuninzi kuwe!

Khanya, khanya, mabubone bonke,  
Ikamva elizele ngamathuba!  
Oh-oh-oh, siyakhanya,  
Sisonke siba lilanga!

**[Bridge — Emotional, Then Explosive]**

Bona umlimi etyala imbewu,  
Bona umphuphi efumana amaphiko.  
Bona uncumo lomama olonwabileyo,  
Bona intliziyo katata izaliswa yinqhayiya.

Umntwana ngamnye unelungelo lokuphupha,  
Ubomi bonke bulelungelo lokukhanya.  
Akukho mntu usala ngaphandle kwesangqa,  
Isandla ngasinye sifanele sibe sesam.

Ukusuka kwisitshisi sethemba esincinci,  
Kwiintliziyo ezizigidi ezibalekayo,  
Okwabelana ngako kuba ngamandla ethu,  
Kwaye sisonke siya kukhula!

**[Final Chorus — Choir, Drums, Celebration]**

[Verse]  
Oh-oh-oh, khanya ngobuqaqawuli!  
Amaphupha ethu, awethu sonke.  
Sinyuka sonke, iintliziyo zodwa,  
Ilizwe eliqaqambileyo kuthi sonke!

[Chorus]  
Oh-oh-oh, moya wakho mawuphakame!  
Vula iintliziyo, uvule iingcango.  
Ngokhanyo, amaphupha ethu mawazaliseke,  
Ubuninzi kum, ubuninzi kuwe!

[Verse]  
Khanya, khanya, bonise ihlabathi,  
Ikamva eligcwele amathuba!  
Oh-oh-oh, siyakhanya,  
Sisonke siba kukhanya!

[Outro — Joyful, Timeless]  
Ukukhanya kukuphila,  
Isingqi esabelwana ngaso sonke.  
Ukusuka kwinzima ukuya enkululekweni,  
Ngothando olungenakulinganiswa.

Oh-oh-oh, ihlabathi lonke malikhanye,  
Iphupha lakho lelakho, elam lelami.  
Sisonke siya kuba yimbali,  
Ilizwe lethemba nokuhlonipha.

Khanya, khanya, makukhanye,  
Kusuka kwiintliziyo, ububele maluhambe.  
Ihlabathi elinye, uthando olunye, ngonaphakade,  
Ikamva eliqaqambileyo kuthi sonke!

*Khanya... makukhanye...*  
*Khanya... elakho nelam...*
