Umunt' ongaziyo la esuka khona
Ufana nomuntu ongazi la ayakhona
Amaqhawe akwantu
Siyaziqhenya ngawo
[Chorus]
Intak' ezulu iyandilandela
Intak' ezulu iyandilandela
Uthekwana intaka yezulu
Yandilandela
Uyandilandela
Ndibheke ngapha nangapha
Usemvakwami
Umama Maxeka, uHelen Joseph
Bayandilandela, bayandilandela
Bayandilandela, uyandilandela
Ndival' iindlebe zami uyandisebenzela
UTata Mandela uyandisebenzela
Ndival' iindlebe zami uyandisebenzela
Ubab' uLuthuli uyandisebenzela
[Chorus x2] +
(Thekwane, Thekwane, Thekwane inyoni yezulu)
Ilizwe lonke ndilijikile
Ndifuna ndifun' impendulo
Ndajonga phezulu, ubani lona
O, nguye uThekwane
[Bridge]
