Moroka ga a na Moeno.
O hweditše noka e tletše
Mme a rata ka ntšana _ pedi tša Boroka
Ke bana ba Maala a diatla,

Kgoši ya go ya nokeng ka legapa pitša ke šia mešidi Nkgo ke šia go imelwa.

Ke ba bo potopoto a Kwena
A bo_ meetse manwiwa Makgwathane A bo tau segotla Mosegare
ke babo _ Tantanyane a magolo.
A borwa a makalela a godimo

Ke bana ba pula e sa dumego, pula re bona ka marotholodi.
Ke bana ba Mmutle _ Monyane ‘a Borwa,
Mmutle ke šia lesolo, ke šia Maptja ‘a Kgobane,
ke šia Maptja a Lepalakata;
Mmutle ka Mahlatši ke phura marapo ke phura marapo ‘a batho.

Phatudi masogana, Mokone wabo_ Legobole.

Segwagwa se kile sa lla Mapaganeng Mogodi ga bo_ Mmapa ‘a letswalelo.

Ke ngwana ka khurumetšwa ka seroto ka gola,

Nageng ya Bakgaga Bammakubela!

English translation:

Moroka has no Moeno.
He found the river full
And he liked and I took out two of the Sleepers
They are the children of Maala palms,
The white king of the woman,
The king who goes to the river with a pot, I leave the ashes, I leave to be burdened.

It’s a crocodile
Let them invite the Makwathane singers
Let it be_ the lion segotla Mosegare
they are brothers _ Big Tantanyan.
He looked up in surprise

They are the children of the unbelievable rain, the rain we see in drops.
They are the children of Mmutle _ Monyane ‘a Borwa,
I’m leaving the rabbit, I’m leaving the cats ‘a Kgobane,
I leave the dogs of Lepalakata;
Let the rabbit with his eyes break the bones and break the bones of the people.

Phatudi boys, Mokone wabo_ Legobole.
Sepharara Mangana, Rainwater harvesting in Mabushe;
Segwagwa used to cry in Paganeng Mogodi for the Mmapa’s compassion.

I was a child and I was covered in a basket when I grew up,
I was killed when I grew up, I tried to cross the black river; I remember going to Steward Lovedale in Mathos.

I have returned to Bakgaga’s plate and covered it to the intestines;
The child of Kgomoegadi of Maroteng was slaughtered.
I accepted the advice of Makobatsatši, and I relied on it.

The ‘green’ skins are small,
Bo_ Makata with a horse, Mphahlele’s son.

I said when I entered the kingdom a dark crowd came down from the mountains;
Shots were fired, all of them were not gun shots, but educational shots.

I have gathered the children of Selete, the king has heard Mabjanamaswana.
The waters of education are waterfalls.
It is like the rain of Medupi of good fortune, it is drunk on all sides of the yellow land of Mphahlele’s scholars.

The roads leading to meetings turned into pits, and those of Diwewe turned into dirt roads.
These girls, I wash my hands.
Take him out of the land of Geshu, I am breaking bones, not the bones of people, but the bones of development.

Embrace the joy of Seogeng and wait for the land of Geshu I have expanded.
In the North, I am with Tshwene and Maja,
I have been so silent all morning.

In the land of Bakgaga Bammakubela!
