Lyrics

In my native village, in Johannesburg
There is a song that we always sing when a young girl gets married
It's called The Click Song by the English
Because they can't say ngqothwane
Igqira lendlela nguqo ngqothwane
Igqira lendlela kuthwa nguqo ngqothwane
Igqirha lendlela nguqo ngqothwane
Igqirha lendlela nguqo ngqothwane
Seleqabele gqi thapha nguqo ngqothwane
Selequbule gqi thapha nguqo ngqothwane
Seleqabele gqi thapha nguqo ngqothwane
Selequbule gqi thapha nguqo ngqothwane
Igqira lendlela nguqo ngqothwane
Igqira lendlela kuthwa nguqo ngqothwane
Igqirha lendlela nguqo ngqothwane
Igqirha lendlela nguqo ngqothwane
Seleqabele gqi thapha nguqo ngqothwane
Selequbule gqi thapha nguqo ngqothwane
Seleqabele gqi thapha nguqo ngqothwane
Selequbule gqi thapha nguqo ngqothwane
