Hela Chileshe

Ungabayeki bakubizi ikirimani

Nawu ngumuntu

Uzovuka nini (welele Ngobese)

Welele Ngobese

Yeka ukubiza abanye abantu izilwane

Nabo ngabantu

Uzofunda nini (hey nina mabhunu)

Helele mabhunu

Yekani ukubiza abanye abantu amakhafula

Nabo ngabantu

Nizocava nini (thimela, thimela)

Thimlela tsotsi

Yeka ukugwaza abanye abantu ngemimese

Nabo ngabantu

Uzokhula nini (ngenkululeko yethu)

Ngenkululeko yethu

Mina ngangiboni

Ngiboni igazi lethu elichithwa ngesandla zethu

Hlanganani, Hlanganani bakithi

Yekelani ukumonakala

IZizwe ziyazihleka

Lalelani zinothando

Helele Chileshe

Ungabayeki bakubizi ikirimani

Nawe ngumuntu

Uzovuka nini

Welele Ngobese

Yeka ukhubiza abanye abantu izilwane

Nabo ngabantu

Uzofunda nini

Helele mabhunu

Yekani ukubiza abanye abantu amakhafula

Nabo ngabantu

Nizocava nini

Thimlela tsotsi

Yeka ukugwaza abanye abantu ngemimese

Nabo ngabantu

Uzokhula nini

Nge nkululeko yethu

Mina ngangiboni

Ngiboni igazi lethu elichithwa ngesandla zethu

Hlanganani, Hlanganani bakithi

Yekelani ukumonakala

IZizwe ziyazihleka

Lalelani zinothando

Helele Chileshe

Ungabayeki bakubizi ikirimani

Nawe ngumuntu

Hela Chileshe

Don't let them call you a jerk

Here is a man

When will you wake up?

Welele Ngobese

Stop calling other people animals

They are human

What are you going to study (hey I have boers)

Here are the Boers

Stop calling other people cobs

They are human

When will you clean up (run, run)

Kill the tsotsi

Stop stabbing other people with knives

They are human

When will you grow up (in our freedom)

For our freedom

I could not see

I see our blood spilled on our hands

Gather together, Gather our people

Stop being spoiled

The Gentiles laugh at themselves

Listen lovingly

Helele Chileshe

Don't let them call you a jerk

You are also a person

When will you cross

Welele Ngobese

How you keep other people from animals

They are human

What you will learn

Here are the Boers

Stop calling other people cobs

They are human

When will you leave?

Kill the tsotsi

Stop stabbing other people with knives

They are human

When will you grow up?

With our freedom

I could not see

I see our blood spilled on our hands

Gather together, Gather our people

Stop being spoiled

The Gentiles laugh at themselves

Listen lovingly

Helele Chileshe

Don't let them call you a jerk

You are also a person
