Johnny Clegg - Umgane Wami

Wemngane wami bes' hleke nawe
(My friend we used to laugh together)
Kanti wena ubungihleka
(But all along you were laughing at me)
Wemngane wami besidla nawe
(My friend, we used to eat together)
Kanti wena ubungidla
(but all along you were eating me)
Wemngane wami sakhelene nawe
(My friend, we used to be neighbours)
Kanti wena wakha ngami
(But all along you were using me)

Bathi inyoni ihluma ngophaphe lwenye inyoni
(They say one bird builds its nest with another bird's feathers)
Ngempilo yam' awuzakhele 'yakho
(It's my life, build your own life)
