Repeat x5

Nguwe wedwa owavuma [You are the only one who agreed (/said Yes)]

Nguwe wedwa owavuka [You are the only one who rose up]

Luthathe lonke, nalu ‘dumo, Simakade [Take it all, here is the praise, Ancient of Days]

Chorus: x2

Owahlatshwa ephangweni [He who was pierced on his side]

Owavuma ukuhlushwa, ngenxa yami [He agreed to suffering, because of me]

Malube kuye, lonku ‘dumo [Let there be unto him, all praise]

Ooh ooh malube kuye, lube kuye, lonku ‘dumo [ooh ooh let there be unto him, be unto him, all praise]

Esathwala ameva [As He was wearing the thorns]

Esathwala is’phambano [As He was carrying the cross]

Ngenxa yami [All because of me]
