Oh Mama, ngiyabonga Mama
Aweh, sho
You held my hand when the night was cold
The greatest story that was ever told
Through the struggle, you stood so strong
Now I sing for you this beautiful song
Sho, Mama, you paved the way
I work hard to make you proud every day
Mama wami, luthando lwami
You are the queen of my heart, ngiyabonga
Mama wami, luthando lwami
We dancing to the log drum, celebrating you
Yebo, Mama wami, ngiyabonga!
From Soweto down to the world stage
We writing blessings on a brand new page
No more tears, only smiles tonight
Under the African sun, you shine so bright
Asambe, let's dance, let's groove
See how the rhythm makes your spirit move
Mama wami, luthando lwami
You are the queen of my heart, ngiyabonga
Mama wami, luthando lwami
We dancing to the log drum, celebrating you
Yebo, Mama wami, ngiyabonga!
Ngiyabonga Mama
Sharp sharp, my queen
Aweh
