[Chichewa] Motherland

Lyrics

[Intro]  
Oh na-na, dzukani, Africa yowala!  
Ndalama zikuyenda, tiyime pamodzi!  
Sweefin kutsogolera, onani kukwera,  
Nyimbo za dziko, mverani nyimbo!

[Verse 1]  
Kuchokera mudzi kupita ku nyali za mzinda,  
Tikuyendetsa, tsogolo likuwala.  
Malonda akuyenda, zitseko zikumasulidwa,  
Tikutha maunyolo, palibe choletsa.  
Oh, kuchokera Accra kupita Nairobi,  
Sweefin ikuyika njira yakukula.  
Gwira dzanja langa, tiyime pamodzi,  
Tikupanga chuma kudutsa dziko.

[Chorus]  
Oh-oh, ndalama zikuyenda kwa mayiko athu,  
Sewera ku nyimbo, anthu ayime.  
Kuchokera kuzimitsidwa, tikugwetsa mpanda,  
Kulimbikitsa kumakweza onse.  
Oh-oh, dzukani ndi kusewera, kuli m’manja mwanu,  
Mawu a Africa, mverani gulu.  
Sweefin vibes, kubweretsa chiyembekezo usiku uno,  
Ndalama zikuyenda, tsogolo lowala.

[Verse 2]  
Palibe munthu osiyidwa, palibe mfumukazi kumbuyo,  
Dziko lidzaona, tikusintha.  
Ndalama zikuyenda, zitseko zikutseguka,  
Umphawi watha, tikupanga zatsopano.  
Oh mayi, sekani, mwana wanu adzakula,  
Sweefin mbewu, onetsani zokolola.  
Ndalama zikuyenda, oh mlengalenga mwaukhondo,  
Nyimbo ya chitukuko paliponse!

[Bridge]  
Mverani nyimbo, oh iloleni kuyenda,  
Kuchokera Cape Town kupita ku Nile.  
Ndalama zikuyenda mumsewu uliwonse,  
Onani nyimbo ikukweza mapazi anu.  
Mayiko akuyimirira, maloto akukhala amoyo,  
Mphamvu ya Sweefin idzakhala.  
Malonda ndi chikhulupiriro m'dziko lililonse,  
Pamodzi amphamvu, tikukula.

[Chorus]  
Oh-oh, ndalama zikuyenda kwa mayiko athu,  
Sewera ku nyimbo, anthu ayime.  
Kuchokera kuzimitsidwa, tikugwetsa mpanda,  
Kulimbikitsa kumakweza onse.  
Oh-oh, dzukani ndi kusewera, kuli m’manja mwanu,  
Mawu a Africa, mverani gulu.  
Sweefin vibes, kubweretsa chiyembekezo usiku uno,  
Ndalama zikuyenda, tsogolo lowala.

[Outro]  
Oh inde, lolani ndalama ziziwombola,  
Kudzera m'manja onse, chisoni chionetseni.  
Africa ikukwera, oh yowala kwambiri,  
Pamodzi tikuyenda, kugwirizana.  
Na-na, na-na, sewera usiku uno,  
Ndalama zikuyenda zowala.  
Nyimbo za dziko, njira ya Sweefin,  
Mawa lowala kuchokera lero!
