*Lyrics English Translated*

[Pre-chorus]
Baby wami ithi ngikutshele, ngifuna ungizwe
*(My baby, let me tell you something, I want you to hear me out)*
Ayafana amagents, ayafana amajimbos
*(Gents are the same, men are the same)*
Abanye bazokushela, bathi umuhle
*(Others will approach you, and say that you’re beautiful)*
Kodwa ayafana amagents, ayafana amajimbos
*(But gents are the same, men are the same)*
Bayafana abafwethu
*(My fellow brothers are the same)*

[Chorus]
Yoma! Yoma! Yooh!
Ngiyakutshela
*(I am telling you)*
Ayafana amagents, ayafana amajimbos
*(Gents are the same, men are the same)*
Yoma! Yoma! Yooh!
Ngiyakutshela
*(I am telling you)*
Ayafana amagents, ayafana amajimbos
*(Gents are the same, men are the same)*

[Verse 1]
Ayafana amajimbos, noma ngaze kuth’ kanjani
*(No matter what, all men are the same)*
Zoth’ uthol’ ongath’ u-right, ak’jikele nje kanjalo
*(Just when you believe you've found the right man, they turn on you)*
Zoth’ umuntu uyamazi, avele akumangaze
*(You’d think you know a person, then they surprise you)*
Ngiyabona awungikholwa, lalela nana
*(I can see that you don’t believe me but listen here my little girl)*

Lezinto zakhona esizibona imihla yonke
*(We witness these things everyday)*
Bazothi nguwe uyachoma, ngob’ ungafuni ukubaqoma
*(They will say you are arrogant because you don’t want to date them)*
Yeb’ abahlukile bakhona, kodwa akulula ukubabona
*(Yes, there are those who are different, but it’s not easy to spot them)*
Vula ‘mehlo mntwanam’ ungadlal’ abafana
*(Open your eyes my child, don’t let these boys deceive you)*

**Repeat pre chorus & chorus**

[Verse 2]
Injalo ke nana impilo yalana esiyiphila eMzansi, eSouth Africa
*(That is how it is here in Mzansi, South Africa, my little child.)*
Ku rough kunjena, akukho safe mawumuntu wesfazane
*(It’s rough and not safe for women)*
Nami ngiyakhala kodwa mntwanami nami ngiyi gent
*(I'm crying too, but I'm a gent as well, my child.)*
Nami ngiyi gent, no no no, no!
*(I am also a gent, no no no, no!)*

Lezinto zakhona sizibona imihla yonke
*(We witness these things everyday)*
Bazothi nguwe uyachoma, ngob’ ungafuni ukubaqoma
*(They will say you are arrogant because you don’t want to date them)*
Yeb’ abahlukile bakhona, kodwa akulula ukubabona
*(Yes, there are those who are different, but it’s not easy to spot them)*
Vula ‘mehlo mntwanam’ ungadlal’ abafana
*(Open your eyes my child, don’t let these boys deceive you)*

**Repeat pre chorus & chorus**

I'm leaving my comment here so that after a year someone likes it, I'll be notified and play this masterpiece again😇😇

[pamellangcobo]

I don’t think we realise just how lucky we are to have this guy. He gives us nothing but quality music

[lisa-mariebby]

His honesty made me realise that I'm enough as a woman and there's nothing wrong with me..♥️

[fali_bee]

As a girl raised by a single father, these are my daddies words in a song.

[justomari]

when he sings, he sings with a pure heart. no other artist will make us cry like you do...

[lesibaadam]

one thing i love about South Africans is that we all love and appreciate this man"s talent and give him his flowers everytime we get a chance <3

[kamogelotsotsi]

I cried. Purely because he really made sure that all the girlies who grew up with no father figure like myself get to experience this kinda love and guidance.🥺

[syethembasethabile]

The guy never dissapoints and he loves his daughter that is amazing.

[sithabisodube]

The fact that he wrote and sang this song when he was going through the darkest time in his life is such a gift.

[martinzwelakhemanzini]

This guy is the most humble and chilled person.... when he sings all you need to do is to close your eyes and listen to his voice ....on ma Mama he is an Angel on earth ..He is pure 🙌🔥🔥 May God keep you for us we still need more from someone like you my brother❤️

[tshegoledwaba_maskhosi]

It feels like you wrote this song for us(girls and women) all and not just your daughter. Thank you for this💜
