[Zulu] Higher

Lyrics

[Verse]  
🎵 Oh oh oh oh, eh eh!  
Siyakhuphuka!  
Sweefin umndeni, nilungele yini?  
Sithi siya phezulu, phezulu, phezulu!

[Verse 1]  
Ngangihamba emlilweni, ngicabanga ukuthi ubusuku abupheli,  
Kodwa ukukhanya kwakho kwakhanyisa, ubumnyama bami kwaba umngane.  
Njalo ukushaya kwenhliziyo kuyisigqi, njalo isinyathelo siyimelody,  
Manje noSweefin siyakhuphuka, sibhalela umculo wethu.

[Pre-Chorus]  
Azikho izibopho ezizosibamba,  
Sibheke phezulu, asibuyele emuva.  
Sivela emlotheni siyavutha,  
Leli yithuba lethu, leli yisikhathi sethu.

[Chorus (Hook)]  
Sweefin phezulu, phezulu, asibheke phansi,  
Amaphupho avutha, avutha, asuka emhlabathini.  
Izinhliziyo zihlangene, singakhanyisa isibhakabhaka,  
Sweefin phezulu, phezulu — mina nawe.

[Chant / Call & Response]  
🎵 (Umholi) Sweefin phezulu!  
(Izihlwele) Phezulu!  
(Umholi) Amaphupho avutha!  
(Izihlwele) Avutha!  
(Umholi) Phakamisa izandla zakho!  
(Izihlwele) Phezulu!  
Sihlangana siyakhuphuka, sihamba phezulu!

[Verse 2]  
Yonke inxeba laba indaba, zonke izinyembezi zaba izinyathelo,  
Manje ubuhlungu bakhe inkazimulo, asinamahloni, sikhulile.  
Emseleni kuya edolobheni, wonke amazwi aqala ukuhaya,  
Amandla eSweefin emoyeni wethu, ukuthula kuyiphimbo esilethayo.

[Pre-Chorus]  
Azikho izibopho ezizosibamba,  
Sibheke phezulu, asibuyele emuva.  
Sivela emlotheni siyavutha,  
Leli yithuba lethu, leli yisikhathi sethu.

[Chorus (Hook)]  
Sweefin phezulu, phezulu, asibheke phansi,  
Amaphupho avutha, avutha, asuka emhlabathini.  
Izinhliziyo zihlangene, singakhanyisa isibhakabhaka,  
Sweefin phezulu, phezulu — mina nawe.

[Bridge / Breakdown]  
Phakamisa izandla, umhlaba ubone,  
Sweefin iletha ubunye.  
Yonke umphefumulo uyakhanya,  
Ngokuphakade owakho, ngokuphakade owami.  
🎵 (Chant) Oh oh oh, Sweefin oh!  
Eh eh eh, siya phezulu!  
Oh oh oh, Sweefin oh!  
Vutha, vutha, kushisa emoyeni wethu!

[Chorus (Hook) ×2 with variations]  
Sweefin phezulu, phezulu, asibheke phansi,  
Amaphupho avutha, avutha, asuka emhlabathini.  
Izinhliziyo zihlangene, singakhanyisa isibhakabhaka,  
Sweefin phezulu, phezulu — mina nawe.🎵 Siya phezulu (phezulu!)  
Siya namandla (amandla!)  
Siya kukhanya (kukhanya!)  
Sweefin kuze kube phakade (phakade!)  
🎵 Sweefin phezulu, phezulu — (oh oh oh!)  
Sweefin phezulu, phezulu — (eh eh eh!)  
Amaphupho avutha, avutha — (oh oh oh!)  
Sweefin phezulu, phezulu — mina nawe!🎵 Sweefin… phezulu, phezulu, phezulu…  
Siya phezulu, phezulu, phezulu…  
Ngokuphakade sikhuphuka, ngokuphakade sikhanya…  
Sweefin phezulu, mina nawe.
