LLM Mbatha Poems

She is a flower in delicacy, and radiance
When she smiles she reflects the true essence of light

She is the reason for the sun to glide across the midday sky
...

Uthando lubopha
Ingqondo kanye nomoya wami ngabhande linye
Lwehlukanisa umzimba wami, nenhliziyo yami
Angikwazi nokucwayiza
...

Ngacela uku mamatheka
Wena wanginika uhleko
Ngacela ubu suku
Wena wanginika inyanga (ekhanyayo)
...

One day The People will wake up
open up their eyes
look at their dictator and see him
for what he really is: a man!
...

Ever since I’ve known him
I’ve also known her
I never saw the two apart
Never saw them without a fight
...

Ngisho noma ulwandle lubuye lungazi
Ukuthi kumele lugcine kuphi
Lapho izivunguvungu sezixakile
Kodwa kuse yi ntokozo khona
...

A moment in time captured in a simple wind
Of a simple pipe
By a simple folk
I see black boys standing in a corner somewhere
...

She says, she also loves gazing
At the midnight sky…
That’s why she took physics,
Though it is a challenging subject
...

ndinokuda mudiwa: means- i love you my darling
nemoyo wangu.....with my heart
ndinokusuwa: means- i miss you
nemoyo wangu wese...... (wese: means- whole)
