Maziya
Mcusi
Gembe
Mkhabela
Wena owakhabela amakhosi amaningi
Wena owadla isigungu wangayibikela inkosi
Wabikela uMshengu wakwaShabalala
Wathi izinyawo zenkosi zonakele!
Kanti zoniwe insinde yakwaLidakana
Wena wakwaMshoshoba imfe engadliwa zinyoni
Wena kaMaliwa owaliwa ngabezizwe
Mcusi omhlophe izandla nezinyawo
Wena wenjiki emnyama yasoHlelo
Wabona ngani ukuthi injiki iwelile?
Wabona ngamanzi ukudungeka
Wena weKunene wanginika ugaba
Zaba mbili sephulelana
Wena owawela iMpolonja kabili
Sibeko omuhle nezinyawo zakhe!!

I’m Lindokuhle Sibeko. Sibeko’s are Swati people that’s where they originate they’ve never been Zulu yes there are some who fled to the Zulu kingdom. The originality and history of surnames are in the clan names. Mkhabela owakhabela amakhosi amaningi, wadla isigungu wangayibikela iNkosi wase wabikela Shabalala kaMshengu kutsi tinyawo teNkhosi toniwe kantsi tonile. That’s tells you that Sibeko was one of the Lords(chiefs) of Swazi people who protected the dignity and integrity of the King. BoShabalala, boMabuza, boMtshali, boMaziya, boSibeko are the first Lords (chiefs) of the Swazi kingdom. Lamuhla bo Mavuso bamile bavikelwa yibo boShabalala. The Swati history is very rich and deeper than what we are told. Look at all the clan names there’s a history embedded there.
