WHILE THE DAYS ARE GOING BY
1. Kulya bantu balecula, Ilyo nshiku shileya;
Kuli bambi abalefwa, Ilyo nshiku shileya:
'Fwe tubakoseleshe. Bonse bali mu nshila,
Tulecite fisuma, Ilyo nshiku shileya.
*CHORUS:
Shileya (shileya), Shileya (shileya), Shileya (shileya),
Shileya (shileya), Tulecite fisuma ilyo nshiku shileya*
2. Te nshita iyakwikala, Ilyo nshiku shileya;
Mpumi yobe ibekeshe, Ilyo nshiku shileya:
Icalo ca malanda, Macusho no kulila,
Twafwe bonse balewa, Ilyo nshiku shileya.
3. Imyando ya kutemwana, Ilyo nshiku shileya,
Tatuleisakamana, Ilyo nshiku shileya;
Lelo mbuto shisuma Isho ifwe twabyele,
Shiletusansamusha. Ilyo nshiku shileya.
