Vezandlebe Testo

Umfowethu uyahlupha -- angazi impela ukuthi uqonda ukwenzani

(My brother bothers me -- I really don't know what he's up to)

Umfowethu uyahlupha -- ukhuluma izinto engingazazi

(My brother bothers me -- he speaks of things I have never heard)

Umfowethu uyahlupha -- wenza sangathi uyangingcokolela
(My brother bothers me -- it's as if he is trying to put me down)

Umfowethu uyahlupha -- maka yeke ukungikhulumela kabi

(My brother bothers me -- he should stop talking behind my back)



Nakho-ke usetshela abangane bakhe

(There! he is telling his friends)

Anginguyena owalekhaya, ngiwakwa-next door

(That I am an illegitimate child, that I come from 'next door')



Chorus:
Elakwabani?

(Whose child is this?)

Elakwabani ivezandlebe

(Whose is this child with his ears sticking out?)

Selicwayisa amehlo livezandlebe

(It is blinking its eyes, this child of questionable origins)



Umfowethu uyahlupha -- sakhula naye saqudelana

(My brother bothers me -- we grew up together always competing)

Umfowethu uyahlupha -- ngamehlula njalo noma ngani

(My brother bothers me -- I always beat him in every way)

Umfowethu uyahlupha -- umdala kodwa ungathi usemncane

(My brother bothers me -- he is older than me but he never acts his age)

Umfowethu uyahlupha -- ngisuphotha ikhaya kodwa yena akanandaba

(My brother bothers me -- I send money home, but he doesn't care...)



Nakho-ke usetshela abangane bakhe

(There! he is telling his friends)

Anginguyena owalekhaya, ngiwakwa-next door

(That I am an illegitimate child, that I come from 'next door')



Chorus



Khuzani khuzani

(Admonish, admonish)

Khuzani, webaba noma

(Admonish him, Dad and Mom!)
