Mahlokohla lomnyama, ngulondzatja ngentsamo
Lohlokohle timbiba taphuma tenta buhlakalala,
Taye tayawubanjwa ngudaladi esangweni
KaZombodze wemagugu.
Ngwane Lulakane nekhaya netsafeni,
Bebatemdzindz’ umkhaba.
Uyisaphi kuLancabane?
Ngwane usona nonani,
Loku bahlaba tinkhomo bayahlindzisana,
Mngce kushe kube sehlobo,
Kuye kusuk’ emalangabi.
Hlangu sinembele wenkhomo.
Ntsambo katetfwalwa kaZombodze wemagugu.
Wahlohla-ke dvoye!
Nangelutsi lwemkhonto bewungahlohla.
Ngiyamesab’ umtakaMadzanga,
Wabit’ inkhosi ngebudzatja,
Waye wayibita ngebugeletjane.
Hhululu!
Wehle njani emahlatsini lamadze?
Kantsi ngaseMamphondvweni.
Ngingayitsatsaphi inkhosi lengangaNgwane?
Ngiyikhwet’ etu kweMdzimba.
Mlom’ ufika ezulwini.
Ngwane emantini ngimfanisa nesitiba;
Ngwane endleleni ngimfanisa nalevundlako;
Ngwane emitsini ngimfanisa nemnyamatsi;
Ngwane embutini ngimfanisa nesiphongwane;
Ngwane enkhomeni ngimfanisa nenshivatane.
Ngcabiya teluhlunguhlungu tiyababa.
Mkhondvo wetindlovu awulandvwa,
Uyawulandvwa bafana basetingadzeni.
Mhhamuta bantfu bangenaboya Ngwane.
Ligodza lakaZombodze
Kadze liwagil’ emadvodza emacakala.
Inyoni ledlalel’ emahubhen’ etintsaba.
Ingwe ledl’ ematfole etinyatsi.
Buhle baNgwane bungididile,
BungangaVimba kanye naMashongololo.
Uyephana yela Ngwane!
Ngekupha tinyoni teMamphondvweni,
Tidla atiwesuli umlomo,
Wapha Cayitane,
Wase uyawubita Bhebhebhe,
Kutsi kuyadliwa eMamphondvweni,
Wase uyewubita lelikhulu
Lelinemphandl’ enhloko.
Buhlalu kabuhlangan’ entsanyeni,
Ingani kuCikose buyahlangana.
Umvemve wakitsi ngete ngawubeka emutaneni,
Ngingawubeka kaZombodze wemagugu.
Ngwane phani losemnyango,
Losemsamo umtsambekele.
Mbhabha ngajozi lakhe.
Nkhomo taphela tinselo tiy’ emtini wakho
EMamphondvweni.
Uyadzela mfati waseSigombeni,
Walibuka lijaha laNdaba,
Uyadzela mfati waseNyakeni,
Walibuka lijaha laNdaba,
Uyadzela mfati waseMafutseni,
Walibuka lijaha laNdaba,
Liyoshoshobala ngesikhala lesasishona
Khuzwayo waMahlalela waNkhosi.
Uyadzela mfati wakaMshikashika,
Walibuka lijaha laNdaba.
Uyadzela mfati wakaMkhweli,
Ngekubuka lijaha laNdaba.
Intfumbeleti yaDlamini,
Itfumbelete futs’ emahlatsini eMadvokanyawo.
Uyadzela Mashicela,
Ngetulu kweLubombo,
Walibuka lijaha laNdaba.
Lugobe lukhulu lusihlalele,
Lubitwe ngemadvuna akaNgwane,
Akubitel’ imphi yesilungu.
Buhle bungandlati teShowe,
Tona timashob’ ahlula ludzaka.
Lowadzabula kuLongwevu,
Wayifulel’ indlu yeMbabane,
Wentel’ emadvodza khona
Atekuba mphunga.
Mdlovu bawuhlabile,
Bawuhlab’ ekupheleni kwetimphondvo.
Wayishay’ inhloko yaLembelele waSobhuza!
Bayethe!
Wena waphakatsi!
Lukhambule lolukhulu(lwekunene)
Lolumacata amhlophe lwaboNkhosi.
BoMdziniso, boLukhambule lwekunene(labanye batsi lolukhulu) lolumacata amhlophe, bahlobene nebakaTfwala.
BakaMdziniso labadzala bakhona batsi badzabuka kubakaShiba. BakaShiba nebakaMkhwanati endvulo bebaphatsa timbokodvo tenkhosi, basila sijindane(ligwayi lemakhala), baphindze bente nemutsi bewubitwa ngemdziniso lowawusetjentiswa emphini nasekutingeleni. Ngwane wesitsatfu ngesikhatsi akhe eTjeni laNgwane(Tshejuba ngaseLuphongolo), bebakhe naye bakaShiba. Nangesikhatsi asasuka ayekwakha kaZombodze bahamba naye.
Lokucakako kepha kwekutsi bakaMdziniso nome batsi badzabuka kubakaShiba, kepha batsi abatsatsani nebakaTfwala, boLukhambule. Ngabe loko kusho kwekutsi boTfwala, Motsa, naboMkhwanati, Shiba bahlobene?
Ingwenyama Somhlolo uma asaya eMdzimba wahamba nabo bakaMdziniso, wababeka KaGwabe naKaNdinda. Mdlankunzi Mdziniso abengulomunye wetindvuna taSomhlolo. Mdlankunzi utala Nyamayenja labeyindvuna yelibutfo lenkhosi Mswati iMigadlela. Sekutsi kamuva sekubusa inkhosi Mswati sekutfunyelwa umntfwanenkhosi Lukhwabitsa waMswati kutsi ayobusa KaGwabe naKaNdinda. BakaMdziniso base bakhala ngekutsi Lukhwabitsa uyabahlupha.
Kutsite emva kwekukhotsama kwenkhosi Mswati, kwabekwa umntfwanenkhosi Macaleni, lowetsiwa libito laLudvonga wesibili. Nako-ke naye Ludvonga asasheshe akhotsama, lokwenta kutsi kusuke umbango emkhatsini kwebantfwabenkhosi Mswati. Lomunye walabo bekunguMbilini waMswati, labekanguMgadlela ngekubutseka. Ngekubekwa kwemntfwanenkhosi Mbandzeni, lowanikwa laDlamini wesine, Mbilini asuke abalekele emaBhunwini eMashishini(Lydenburd) eNtalasifali. Utsite nakasuka lapho Mbilini wayekwakha enhla neNcikinyane(ngase-Lothair).
Sewuyasuka umema bakaMdziniso Mbilini kwekutsi batewuhlala naye ngase-Lothair ngobe afuna lolwati lwabo lwemdziniso. Basuka labanye bakaMdziniso kaGwabe nakaNdinda bayawuhlala naMbilini. Sewuphindze uyasuka futsi Mbilini uyekwakha endzaweni lesibitwa ngeTafelberg lamuhla, lapho iNtombe itsela khona eLuphongolo, bahamba naye bakaMdziniso.
Nyamayenja Mdziniso labekayindvuna yeMigadlela, njengobe sesibonile, utele Mtfwalo kuDvumako wakaManana, uLaMcusi, dzadze waboMashila, labekasikhulu sebakaManana eMkhondvo. Mtfwalo wakhulela emtini waseMbekelweni kanye nemntfwanenkhosi Bhunu, bakhuliswa yinkhosikati Nabotsibeni. Mtfwalo walunywa yinja, waba nesilondza lesala kuphola. Sekutsiwa akatsatfwe asiwe ekhabonina kubakaManana. Lapho Mtfwalo, asaphilile, wesuka waya eVogrosi(Volkrust) eNtalasifali lapho atfola khona umsebenti, angena sikolwa ebusuku. Ngemnyaka wa-1897 waphehlelelwa esontfweni lemaLuthela, wanikwa libito la-Johannes. Nga- 1902 wabuya KaNgwane asangumvangeli, wacala kushumayeka kuGege. Sekutsi kamuva nga-1918 iNdlovukazi Nabotsibeni seyiyambita Mtfwalo kutsi atosebentela eMbekelweni.
BakaMdziniso njengobe bahlobene nebakaTfwala, njengobe bakaTfwala batila bubendze, lubendze nensangu, singete sati nome nabo batila kona loko na?
