Chorus:
Bavume bonke bengakholwa bo! (All agree they were in disbelief!)
Ukuthi ba bulal'imfuyo bo! (That they killed their livestock!)
Imfuyo beyixabisile bo!( The livestock was so precious!)
Nabaphantsi bebahlolelwe bo! (Even the ancestors were shocked-displeased!)

Zonke zatshiswa bo! (All were burnt!)
Iinkomo zamadoda bo! ( Men's cattle!)
Besala bebabong'ezantsi bo! ( They were left amazed-negatively!)
Phupha ndini likaNongqawuse bo! (Dream Nongqawuse you imbecile!)

This is about the Great Xhosa Cattle killing of 1856/7
