amaNyandeni aMpofu kaMashobane weSidunu seNsingiza, Wokulandelwa yintombi ithi ngizeke noba awula nkomo, Vumisa kaNgono, Msongi wensimbi eyibeke khanda, khona amagwala ezombalekela, Shobane owagaqa ngamadolo aze aphocuka, Ophuz’ amanzi ngokuwabona, engakawaboni komi ! Sango libhekezansi. Akophuma nkomo kophuma amadoda kuphela, Zingwe zombili ezalwa zabulalana kwantaba Ntshanini, ingane ziyaphakelwa ndawonye, Ngwadla phangela izigqala zako Libose, Inyama yenyamazane edliwayo, oyidlayo engayisoli, oyisolayo engayidli ngoba engayidla uyozisola yena.
Ladies and gentlemen, amanyanda. Mina ngu Mxotshwa kaMakhaya umabhenampondo, uVumisa.

Thats why iys bethi-Ophuz’ amanzi ngokuwabona, engakawaboni komi ! When it fights its really serious fight and it does not give in hence bethi-Zingwe zombili ezalwa zabulalana kwantaba Ntshanini.

- The explanation of Twala is very similiar but with shortfalls on other areas. He impregnanted a zulu woman from Khumalo and they wanted to kill him for that, for he was not allowed to have slept with royal families. Hence the stories goes a women followed him and said “ngizeke noba awula nkomo”
