Chorus:
Bamba! Siyayilanda!
Siyayibamba siyayilanda!
Ngithi bamba! Siyayilanda!
Fetch it! Siyayilanda!
Human figures in a dream
I heard them singing "Siyayilanda!"
You've got to get up, carry on
Sing this song "Siyayilanda!"
There's a mean machine -- tear the bone clean
I'll tell you where I've been "Siyayilanda!"
Eat! Sleep! On your feet!
You're going to speak! "Siyayilanda!"
Chorus
Falling star in the night
Comfort the weeper "Siyayilanda!"
Turn to the Left, turn to the Right,
Losers, keepers "Siyayilanda!"
Hold me close, I'm trapped in
A night of seasons "Siyayilanda!"
New sun rising up ahead
Coming your way "Siyayilanda!"
Chorus
Bamba! Siyayilanda!
Siyayibamba siyayilanda!
Ngithi bamba! Siyayilanda!
Fetch it! Siyayilanda!
Human figures in a dream
I heard them singing "Siyayilanda!"
You've got to get up, carry on
Sing this song "Siyayilanda!"
There's a mean machine -- tear the bone clean
I'll tell you where I've been "Siyayilanda!"
Eat! Sleep! On your feet!
You're going to speak! "Siyayilanda!"
Chorus
Falling star in the night
Comfort the weeper "Siyayilanda!"
Turn to the Left, turn to the Right,
Losers, keepers "Siyayilanda!"
Hold me close, I'm trapped in
A night of seasons "Siyayilanda!"
New sun rising up ahead
Coming your way "Siyayilanda!"
