Nayvee’s Prayer lyrics

Mm, hm
Yee, yeah
Mm, mm
Mm, mm
Mm, mm

Ungangiboni ngiilana mina ngisuka kude
Don’t underestimate me; I’ve come a long way.
Ngehla nginyuka ngilala malunde
I’ve been through ups and downs, sleeping rough along the way.
USatan ney’lingo zakhe ngisuka kuye
I’ve turned away from Satan and his temptations.
Kudala bengivimba kodwa ngeke balunge
They’ve been trying to hold me back for a long time, but they won’t succeed.
Ngiyababona abamazi loThixo engikholwa kuye
I see those who don’t know the God I believe in.

Wemame
Oh, my goodness.
Kudala ngibatshela kumunandi ukubekezela
I’ve been telling them for a long time that patience pays off.
Kudala ngibatshela kumunandi ukubekezela
I’ve been telling them for a long time that patience pays off.
Kudala ngibatshela kumunandi ukubekezela
I’ve been telling them for a long time that patience pays off.
Ngithi kudala ngibatshela kumnandi ukubekezela
I’m telling you, I’ve been saying for a long time that patience pays off.
Ukubekezela, ukubekezela, ukubekezela
Patience, patience, patience.
Kudala ngibatshela kumnandi ukubekezela
I’ve been telling them for a long time that patience pays off.
Ukubekezela, ukubekezela
Patience, patience.
Wemame
Oh, my goodness.

Okay, ayy
Phumela ngaphandle nhlupheko, woza silwe
Come out, hardship; come, let’s fight.
‘Dala sik’sab’ aw’ngeke sey’jampile
We’ve feared you for so long, but now we’ve overcome you.
Amaphupho sewafezekile, afezekile, yeah
The dreams have come true, they’ve come true, yeah.
Ungang’boni ng’hamba ngedwa ng’khatshwa Nguye
Don’t think I’m walking alone; He is walking beside me.
Lale, seng’kuma catalog ka’ DJ Zinhle
Look, I’m now featured in DJ Zinhle’s catalogue.
Nomakunini ng’ngaba i-weekend
No matter what, I can make it feel like the weekend.
Phel’ u daddy usebenzile
After all, your boy has put in the work.
Bath’ u daddy u achiev’ile
They say your boy has made it.
Sitha sam’ angeke ung’fice
My enemy, you’ll never find me.
Pokot’ lami sel’ gym’ile
My body is now in shape from working out.
Shiy’ umndeni ujabulile
I’ve left my family happy.
Nami bang’lekelile
They’ve lost out on me too.
Usu’gqwel umoya wam’
My spirit has now risen.
Ngisa’thola konk’ okwam’
I’m still receiving everything that belongs to me.
Ngithandazela abangan’ bam
I pray for my friends.
Nabo bath’ uk’fana nami
They too say they want to be like me.
Nethezeka ntliziyo yami
Take it easy, my heart; be at peace.
Sekungcono empilwen yami
My life is getting better.
Ngithandazel abangan bami
I pray for my friends.
Nabo bath’ ukfana nami
They too say they want to be like me.
Kumn’nandi ukubekezela, hey, hey
Patience feels so good, hey, hey.

Kudala ngibatshela kumunandi ukubekezela
I’ve been telling them for a long time that patience pays off.
Ukubekezela, ukubekezela
Patience, patience.
Ungangiboni ngilana mina ngisuka kude, ay
Don’t underestimate me; I’ve come a long way, ay.
Aw’ ngehla nginyuka ngilala malunde
I’ve been through ups and downs, sleeping rough along the way.
USatan ney’lingo zakhe ngisuka kuye
I’ve turned away from Satan and his temptations.
Kudala bengivimba kodwa angeke balunge, balunge
They’ve been trying to stop me for a long time, but they won’t succeed, they won’t succeed.
Ngiyababona abamazi loThixo engikholwa kuye
I see those who don’t know the God I believe in.

Ay, wemame (Ah, ah-ah)
