|
It wasn't the valley of death, I was walking in |
|
It was the valley of confusion for many years |
|
Different religions, different beliefs |
|
Undermining my culture |
|
Looking down upon my tradition |
|
Making fun of my language |
|
Telling my children, they have no God |
|
Finally I can tell them about, |
|
Shembe is the way |
|
Chorus |
|
Oh SHEMBE thank you for showing us the way. |
|
Shembe nobunazaretha. |
|
Oh SHEMBE thank you for healing my people. |
|
Shembe nobunazaretha. |
|
Shemebe is the way. |
|
I hear them shoulting Amen, |
|
At the top of the mountain |
|
I hear them shouting Uyingcwele |
|
At the top of the mountain. |
|
No one will undermine my religion |
|
No one will undermine my culture anymore, |
|
Cause God sent him from above, to be with the people. |
|
Bring them back to what is their own |
|
Take them back to the ways Of our forefathers. |
|
Finally I can tell generations and generations |
|
That Shembe is the way |
|
Chorus |
|
Oh Shemebe THANK YOU FOR SHOWING US THE WAY. |
|
Shembe Nobunazaretha. |
