Nala:

Chorus: Translation of Zulu:



Fatshe leso lea halalela [The land of our ancestors is holy]

Fatshe leso lea halalela



Nala:

Shadowland

The leaves have fallen

This shadowed land

This was our home



The river's dry

The ground has broken

So I must go

Now I must go



And where the journey may lead me

Let your prayers be my guide

I cannot stay here, my family

But I'll remember my pride



Translation of Zulu: Nala:

Prideland I have no choice

My land I will find my way

Tear-stained Lea halalela

Dry land

Take this Take this prayer

With you What lies out there

Fatshe leso Lea halalela



And where the journey may lead you

Let this prayer be your guide

Though it may take you so far away

Always remember your pride



Chorus:

Fatshe leso lea halalela

Fatshe leso lea halalela Fatshe leso lea halalela



Translation of Zulu:

And where the journey may lead you

Let this prayer be your guide

Though it may take you so far away

Always remember your pride



And where the journey may lead you Giza buyabo, giza buyabo

Let this prayer be your guide I will return, I will return

Beso bo

Though it may take you so far away Giza buyabo, I will return

Always remember your pride Giza buyabo, oh giza buyabo



Nala:

Beso bo, my people, beso bo
