Ayy...
Mayo Idah, Tata Edward... this one is for you.
Natotela mukwai, on God!
From the streets of Lusaka to the Copperbelt
The love you gave me, the warmest I felt
Mum Idah Mwansa, you held my hand so tight
Dad Edward Kondashi, you guided me to the light
No boza, no lies, your love is so true
Every single day, I thank God for you
Ba Idah Mwansa, my beautiful Mayo! (Mayo!)
Ba Edward Kondashi, my strong Tata oh!
Natotela mukwai, for everything you do (yoh!)
Ifwe we are blessed just because of you
Ba Idah na Ba Edward, you are my gold (my gold!)
Your love is the greatest story ever told
You worked so hard, nshima on the plate
Taught me to pray, never to hate
When life was tough, you stood like a rock
Now we are shining, no time for the talk
Mukwai, you deserve the best of this life
No more struggle, no more strife
Ba Idah Mwansa, my beautiful Mayo! (Mayo!)
Ba Edward Kondashi, my strong Tata oh!
Natotela mukwai, for everything you do (yoh!)
Ifwe we are blessed just because of you
Ba Idah na Ba Edward, you are my gold (my gold!)
Your love is the greatest story ever told
Ayy, Mayo Idah... Tata Edward...
I love you forever.
Natotela mukwai.
It's your boy... yeah.
