Ayy, ngiyakuthanda
Augustine Zulu wami, yebo
Umoya wami wokuphefumula
Ngikhumbula mhlawumbe thina sihlangana
Wawuyibasi yami ehhovisi laphaya
Ngithi "Yebo Mnumzane", ngikuhlonipha kakhulu
Kanti uNkulunkulu usenzela izinto ezinkulu
Namuhla ungumngane wami omkhulu impela
Sithandwa sempilo yami, lowo engimkhethela
Augustine Zulu wami, ngiyakuthanda
Uyi-oxygen yami, enhliziyweni yami uyanqoba
Nkosi yami, ngizozigcina kuwe njalo
Ubaba wabantwana bethu, uletha injabulo
Ngiyaziqhenya ngawe, oh ngiyaziqhenya ngawe
Usebenza kanzima nsuku zonke, sithandwa
Wenza impilo ibe lula kithi thina sonke
Ngiyakubona ukhuthala, ngiyakubonga njalo
Inhliziyo yami eyakho, ayinalo uvalo
Wawungumphathi wami, manje usuyisithandwa sami
HR wami, themba lami, kukhanya kwami
Augustine Zulu wami, ngiyakuthanda
Uyi-oxygen yami, enhliziyweni yami uyanqoba
Nkosi yami, ngizozigcina kuwe njalo
Ubaba wabantwana bethu, uletha injabulo
Ngiyaziqhenya ngawe, oh ngiyaziqhenya ngawe
Augustine Zulu wami, impilo yami yonke
Inhliziyo yami eyakho kuphela
Yebo, Nkosi yami
Sithandwa sempilo, kuze kube nini
