Wo nansi lentombi engiyithandayo
(There's that girl I love)
Aw kodwa mangikhuluma nayo
(But when I talk to her)
Sengishayw'uvalo
(I get nervous)
Bacasula abafana engikhule nabo
(The boys I grew up with are irritated)
Bathi ngiyigwala mina
(They say I'm a coward)
Ngiyis'shimane
(I'm scared of girls)

lyangihlula lentombi, madoda
(This girl doesn't want me, guys)
Bengithanda ukujika nelanga
(I used to wait around all day)
lyangihlula lentombi, madoda
(This girl doesn't want me, guys)
Namhla sihamba namanye masoka
(Now I'm learning from the casanovas)
Ib'hluhung' inhliziyo yegwala
(The heart of a coward is painful)

Gwala! Ibuhlungu wenhliziyo yegwala, ibuhlungu
(Coward! It's painful. Oh the heart of a coward is painful)
Ibuhluhungu inhliziyo yegwala
(The heart of a coward is painful)

Wo nansi lentombi engiyithandayo
(There's that girl I love)
Aw kodwa mangikhuluma nayo
(But when I talk to her)
Sengishayw'uvalo
(I get nervous)
Baqhaluka abafana engikhule nabo
(The boys I grew up with are irritated)
Bathi ngiyigwala mina
(They say I'm a coward)
Ngiyis'shimane
(I'm scared of girls)

lyangihlula lentombi, madoda
(This girl doesn't want me, guys)
Bengithanda ukujika nelanga
