2011-11-11 Man!Kunzima ilife siphila ngayo emhlabeni
Sikhangel ‘imali emakhonene, cause ngolwesihlanu kufuneka kube sphitiphiti man
Sigruve sijaive namatjombosi asekhasi kondwa imali sisayithola kanjani man siphile ilife igrand

2011-11-11 Two hearts start beating as one in this cradle of passion that we’ve begun.Just close your eyes and we’ll kiss away this earth between us falling astray.
In this moment of love soaring above all wrong and anguish the world enwove.
Pray we drown in each other’s eyes, in bliss, in radiance far from lies.
