5. KUTALI SHANI KUMWESU
HOW FAR FROM HOME?
HOW FAR FROM HOME?
1. Kutali shani ku mwesu? Naipwishe kwa kalinda,
Amashiwi anjebele, "Kasuba kaisa;
Mwilalila, endesheni, Ntungulushi busumino;
Mukafika ku lubuto Mu calo ca Mfumu."
2. Naipwishe abankondo, Basosele kuli ine,
"Tukakosa ukulwisha, Ifita fyacepa;
Mwilalila, koselesha, kulwisha pano pa calo,
Tukapoka ifitebo lintu bwansho bwapwa."
3. Naipwishe ifibumbwa, fyamoneka ukwasuka,
"Inshita sha mpulumushi, Shikesapwa bwangu;
Mwilalila, mumfwe landwe, Malangililo yatweba,
Fibumbwa fyonse fyalinda ku mpela ya fita."
4. Mupepi nomba ku mwesu, Kutontonkanya kwapalwa,
Ilandwe ili lyawama, kutusekelesha;
Mwilalila, pantu bwangu, macusho yonse yakapwa;
Tukasekela pe na pe Mu Ng'anda mwa Tata.
