Asimbonanga uAlkhawaja thina – for Alkhawaja where ever you might be

Asimbonanga (We have not seen him)
Asimbonang’ uAlkhawaja thina (We have not seen Alkhawaja)
Laph’ekhona (In the place where he is)
Laph’ehleli khona (In the place where he is kept)

Oh the sea is cold and the sky is grey
Look across the Island into the Bay
We are all islands till comes the day
We cross the burning water

Asimbonanga (We have not seen him)
Asimbonang’ uAlkhawaja thina (We have not seen Alkhawaja)
Laph’ekhona (In the place where he is)
Laph’ehleli khona (In the place where he is kept)

A seagull wings across the sea
Broken silence is what I dream
Who has the words to close the distance
Between you and me

Asimbonanga (We have not seen him)
Asimbonang’ uAlkhawaja thina (We have not seen Alkhawaja)
Laph’ekhona (In the place where he is)
Laph’ehleli khona (In the place where he is kept)
