Izibongo zika Sarhili
Ahh!! Ntaba
ngu soPasi
u jikuty' amaphambili phofu engawasingisi mntwini.
yi Ntsundu ka Nomsa ka Gambushe kwa Bomvana,
u ngxowa inemilenze yokufaka amaduna akowabo,
ooPhatho noo Sandile.
yi Namb enkuuuuuulu ebhijeli Hohita,
ovuk'emini akabonanga nto ngoba akayibonanga iNamba icombuluka.
li Lunga le gwaba lika Hintsa,
ngu Magan' iindlezana
u Mavel' elunguza njenge ngcu ye ngcuka kwabe nduku kwa Moshoeshoe.
yi nqaba enkuuuuuulu, isilo esingaziwa mngxuma,
u Mdaka ka Hintsa.
ngu saliwa nga qubu esiswini,
ngu Gwebityala elisemva elibizwa yi Mbongi.
u Gwebityala lika Feni wali zinzisa,
ngu Nqanawe zavalela amaNgesi, zaya zawakhupha kwa Somtsewu,
ukuze amaBhaca alwe namaNGutyana.
ngu Nyoka yobu Gqi ngu Mamlambo.
ngu zwe lafa ngembiza zika Mbune,
hayi ngo mona amaMfengu aseGcuwa.
ngu Xakatha u Gaga, iGwangqa lika Mpohlo.
Gxothani iimantyi ziye Rhini apho zibuliswa khona,
Hashe elimhlophe ndim ndodwa na omdala ebantwini?
nithi ezi zinto ndizazi ngantoni na bethu?
izinto zindongamale nje -
bundongamele ubuntu nobuKhosi,
kundongamele ukuphatha nokulawula,
bundongamele ubukhulu nokuduma,
zindonqenile izizwe zaxelelana,
zindoyikile izizwe zade zacela u mlungu,
ukuze zithi nje zakulila izinandile,
wabizwa u Elefu kwathiwa wayek amamfengu,
kuba ohlwaywa ngu Hintsa mhla afika, wawafaka ekhwapheni.
kukuze lixole ngo Ngcayechibi, amaXhosa awele uMbhashe.
Ahhhh Ntaba!!
