Zulu Worship song lyrics
Sengiyamethemba lowo
Owanigelwa le EGolgotha
Ngezono zam’ nezabantu bonke
Hay’ imvana eyophayo
Yahlatshelwa thina, thina
Hay’ uMmeli wabonayo
Wasifela thina
Hay’ uMmeli wabonayo
Wasifela thina
Haleluja Siyabonga, simakade
Bayede Nkos’ engcwele
O Wangithwalel’ umqhele
Lowo mqhele wakuhlaba
Kuze ngibe nokwethaba
Wawungenasici Jesu
Wawumuhle mhlaba-hlosi
Kepha wakudela konke
Ngazo zonk’ izono zethu
Bayede Nkosi yam’, Bayede Nkosi yam’
Lokhudungi, kuyangimangalisa
Futh’ buye, kuyangithombisa
Kuyaqeda, yonk’ inkani
Nami ngiyathandwa
Ngingubani? Bayede!
Bayede Nkosi yam’, Bayede Nkosi yam’

Half-brother of Shaka who reigned from 1840 to 1872. He had at least 28 children by different wives, many of whom have living descendants. His reign saw the Zulu kingdom maintain its independence while navigating complex relationships with Boer settlers and British colonial forces.

Current reigning monarch of the Zulu nation, installed in 2021 following the death of his father. His mother was Queen Mantfombi Dlamini, daughter of King Sobhuza II of Eswatini.

His reign has faced legal challenges from other branches of the royal family but continues with the support of millions of Zulu people.
