[Venda] We Rise Together

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Luvhone lu mmbi kha vhusiku, tshiṱarathedza tsho dzumbamaho,
Mivhili i tshee mulamule, ri lwela vhuvhuya.
Muraḓo wa u vhofholowa, zwino milatho i khou fhambana,
Shango ḽi tshiṱangana, ḽi tshi tou bva u thoma, Swifin i khou gudiswa.

[Pre-Chorus]
Pfa muvhili wa u bvelela, maanḓa a nga mulenzhe,
Roṱhe ri do thuba zwifhiwa zwa ndala, nyofho, na vhuṱungu.
Tshanda u takula o wela, tshedza u shela mulenzhe,
Swifin i khou vhidza roṱhe—ri kande vhege la tshedza.

[Chorus]
Ri takuwa roṱhe, muṱa u khwaṱhaho,
Tshilidzi tshi sa fheli, roṱhe ri vha vhathu vha shango.
U khwaṱhisa magidi, na u sa ofha,
A hu na ane a sala murahu, roṱhe ri thoma.
Nga Swifin, ri do fhaṱa shango ḽa vhukuma,
U vhuya kha vhoṱhe, kha nnṱha na iwe.

[Verse 2]
Kha mme u langa tshilidzi, kha khotsi u humbela mulalo,
Kha ṅwana ane a fhufha, zwiṱuku zwawe zwi sa fheleli.
U bva miḓini u ya miḓini, u bva thavhani u ya lwanzheni,
Swifin i khou vula vothi, nga vhuḓalo vhuhulwane.

[Pre-Chorus]
Maanḓa a dzula kha riṋe, roṱhe ri ima nga maanḓa,
Roṱhe ri do ṅwala histori, na u takula na u swiela.
Mali ya vhuḓalo, tshenzheledzo i ri vhofholola,
Swifin ndi tshifhinga tshi khou ḓa, tsha riṋe vhoṱhe.

[Chorus]
Ri takuwa roṱhe, muṱa u khwaṱhaho,
Tshilidzi tshi sa fheli, roṱhe ri vha vhathu vha shango.
U khwaṱhisa magidi, na u sa ofha,
A hu na ane a sala murahu, roṱhe ri thoma.
Nga Swifin, ri do fhaṱa shango ḽa vhukuma,
U vhuya kha vhoṱhe, kha nnṱha na iwe.

[Bridge]
Vhona vhutshilo hune ra ḓo kwama, tshanda dzine ra ḓo fara,
Mufuwi, muḓini, tshifhinga tsha vhuthihi.
Lufuno lwa mme, vhuḓiḓani ha khotsi,
Shango ḽine ḽi ḓo ṱhogomela zwiṱuku zwoṱhe.

[Chorus]
Ri takuwa roṱhe, muṱa u khwaṱhaho,
Tshilidzi tshi sa fheli, roṱhe ri vha vhathu vha shango.
U khwaṱhisa magidi, na u sa ofha,
A hu na ane a sala murahu, roṱhe ri thoma.

[Outro]
Swifin ndi mbila ya mbilu, mulanga une ra tevhedza,
Shango ḽi tshi tshimbila, tshi vhonala nga vhaṱali.
U bva kha u dzhenela kha u khwaṱhisa, himbiso i fhufha—
Roṱhe ri ḓo shandukisa shango, lini na lini.
