Bawo, kudala si gcel 'inkululeko
Si nje nge Limpopo
Lizo qala nin 'ithemba lethu?
Limpopo umfula wetu
Bawo, siphi isithembiso?
Re tshwana le Limpopo
Zizo fika nini zonke?
Limpopo molapo wa rona
Amanzi a ya phezulu ezibhakabhakeni
Njalo nathi si khishwa e makhayeni
Si wela njeng 'imvula e mhlabeni
Si hlakazwe e moyen
Si hlakazwe e moyen
Si nje nge Limpopo
Lizo qala nin 'ithemba lethu?
Limpopo umfula wetu
Bawo, siphi isithembiso?
Re tshwana le Limpopo
Zizo fika nini zonke?
Limpopo molapo wa rona
Amanzi a ya phezulu ezibhakabhakeni
Njalo nathi si khishwa e makhayeni
Si wela njeng 'imvula e mhlabeni
Si hlakazwe e moyen
Si hlakazwe e moyen

WATER
Lord, we ask for peace
We are like the Limpopo
When will our hope begin?
Limpopo, our river
Lord, where is the promise?
We are like the Limpopo
When will they all come?
Limpopo, our beloved river
Water rises to the sky
In the same way we are taken from our homelands
Like rain, we fall on strange land
We are scattered with the wind
We are scattered with the wind
Lord, we ask for peace
We are like the Limpopo
When will our hope begin?
Limpopo, our river
Lord, where is the promise?
We are like the Limpopo
When will they all come?
Limpopo, our beloved river
Water rises to the sky
In the same way we are taken from our homelands
Like rain, we fall on strange land
We are scattered with the wind
We are scattered with the wind
