Miriam Stockley – Ifemeli lyrics

Kufudumele amadoda ayasbenza
Kufudumele amadoda ayasbenza

Banceda, umama

Abafazy bayapheka
Kube ilanga elide

Amadoda ayagoduka
Amadod asiza ukutya

Banceda, umama etc..

Ifemeli itya isidlo sango kyhlwa e

English Translation:
It is a warm day
After the children help their mother
with her duties, they go to school.
The women prepare and cook the food.
It has been a very long day for all.
The men make their way home from work,
and they bring food for the family.
The family all eat their supper together.
