Ayy, Mayo wanga
Natotela, natotela
Mayo, you dey sacrifice
Every single day, every single night
Hands working hard, heart so right
You dey hold me down, keep me in the light
From the morning sun to the evening time
Your love dey shine like the stars aligned
Nshima on the table, nshima so sweet
But your care, Mayo, that's the real treat
Mayo wanga, you are the greatest
Mayo wanga, you never forsake us
From Lusaka to the copper belt
Your love's the only wealth I felt
Mayo wanga, Mayo wanga
I say thank you, natotela, natotela
Every scar, every tear you hide
Just to see your pikin smile with pride
You teach me strength, you teach me grace
I see your struggle written on your face
But still you smile, still you pray
Making sure I find my way
Mayo, you the real MVP
You dey everything to me, yoh
Mayo wanga, you are the greatest
Mayo wanga, you never forsake us
From Lusaka to the copper belt
Your love's the only wealth I felt
Mayo wanga, Mayo wanga
I say thank you, natotela, natotela
Mayo wanga, I see you
Natotela, natotela
Forever grateful, ayy
