Transkei Moon by Thandiswa Mazwai Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Transkei Moon
Hangs over me
Like a lump in my throat

Her voice, their singing
It chokes my spirit
And lets it loose again

[Bridge]
Umzi wakhe, u se maweni
Amafu a lele phezu kwethu

[Verse 2]
The Gods have blessed us tonight
I spent the night in the sky
With old ladies whose limbs and voices never tire
Even as I sit here, I can't imagine
What moment in time led me to this one

[Chorus]
Transkei Moon
Transkei Moon
Take me away
Transkei Moon
[Verse 3]
Ndi hamba nawe
Ndi vumelana nawe

And I never will forget your ways
You inspired me
To find God in motion
In a place that seems so still

[Bridge]
Umzi wakhe
Use maweni
Amafu alele phezu kwethu

[Verse ]
I saw the face of Mveliqange here
A place of mysteries and dreams
And when I close my eyes I live again and again
And again and again and again

[Chorus]
Transkei Moon
Transkei Moon
Take me away
Transkei Moon
