Umoya uhlebela phansi
Amagagasi athambile, ake ageleze
Izinkumbulo ziyadansa, oh, kancane kakhulu
Nginawe, ngithole ukukhanya kwami

Ukushona kwelanga emaputo
Izikhathi ezisongwe ngegolide
Ukubambelela, ungalokothi uyeke
Ukuzizwa efudumele, ezizwa enesibindi
(Ethambile) o, maputo
Izwa ukukhanya
Maputo
Ake sibonise

Wala-la phezu kwesihlabathi
Ukuhleka kwakho, ukuthinta okuvela esandleni sakho
Isikhathi sishelela njengezinhlamvu
Kulo mhlaba womlingo
Ukushona kwelanga emaputo
Izikhathi ezisongwe ngegolide
Ukubambelela, ungalokothi uyeke
Ukuzizwa efudumele, ezizwa enesibindi

(Ethambile) o, maputo
Izwa ukukhanya
Maputo
Ake sibonise
Njengoba ilanga lishona
Ngizwa amagagasi ethi
Emaputo, sizohla-la
Ezinhliziyweni zethu, sizodla-la

(Ethambile) o, maputo
Izwa ukukhanya
Maputo
Ake sibonise
