Freshlyground – Human Angels

We believe you could do anything… if you didn’t try at all
We believe the sun spins in your palm everyday and you don’t notice it at all…
But try a little harmony: see if you can suspend your disbelief
Forget about your destiny
Get off your feet and live!
Get off your feet and…
I believe in human angels- I believe they walk around barefoot and wear funny hats
I believe in human fairies- I believe they think they’re children and they’re fond of cats… Of cats!
I believe in human angels- I believe they don’t cared for watches or pink underwear
Everyday they walk right through you
Trying to catch a glimpse of the sunshine they once buried in you
Jojo was a human angel she used to work at the corner shop around the corner from me she believed in human fairies ‘cos she saw one on that trip when she was just 17: ‘venteen!
Everyone’s a human angel… although we don’t all go for the bare feet and the funny hats (we were made from golden sunshine)

Ma’Cheri

Ndiyowafumana ph’ amagama anokuxelela
Sthandwa ukuba ndikuthanda kanjani?
Nadaya phesheya kolwandle
Azange ndamfumana okhanya njengelanga lakho

Ndak ‘thulel’ intyatyambo
Hayi!
Oluhambo alusapheli my dali
Ndakwenzel’ izibele
Manje ukhatele sewukholiwe my baby?

Ndikuthanda njengobisi
Ndikuthanda nje ngelizwi
Ndikuthanda nje ngothando lwakho
Ndiyakuthanda xa umdala
Ndicel undiph’ utando lwakho

Ma’cheri my cheroe

Sabhek etown mna nomababy
Ulovie bamthanda kanjani
Bamqab ibhotolo, bamtyisa irolo
Hayi!
Uyakhany umababy
Ma’cheri my cherie

Sath’ ukubuyel ekhaya phofu nawe uyazi
Uthando aluphelelanga enqondweni
Undithembile udali

Akanasiyali

Xana singen embedweni
