Helele (radio edit) Lyrics

Chorus (2x):
Helele, bomama
Amasiko ethu
Soze aphele kithi
Nabo okhokho bethu
Go for it, children of our mothers!
Our traditions
Will never cease to exist at our place
Nor will our ancestors

Verse:
Amaqhawe esizwe (Asibonge komama)
Abathokozisa bethu (Asibonge abazali)
Izimbali zesizwe (Asibonge komama)

The heroes of the nation (Let's thank our mothers)
Our wellsprings of joy (Let's thank our parents)
The flowers of the nation (Let's thank our mothers)

Pre-chorus:
Uma mina nawe singabambisana
Uma mina nawe singahloniphana
If me and you could help each other
If me and you could respect each other

[chorus (2x)]

Verse:
Amaqhawe esizwe (Asibonge komama)
Bona basikhulisa (Asibonge abazali)
Yini ehlula abazali (Asibonge komama)

The heroes of the nation (Let's thank our mothers)
It was them who brought us up (Let's thank our parents)
What could overpower our parents? (Let's thank our mothers)

Pre-chorus:
Uma mina nawe singabonisana
Uma mina nawe singahloniphana
If me and you could look after each other
If me and you could respect each other

[chorus (1x)]

Bridge:

Phambili, bomama
Themba lesizwe
Hheyi ubuhle benu
Soze buphele

Forward, children of our mothers
Hope of the nation
Hey, your beauty
Will never cease to exist
