O BE A MO RATA
(She loved him)
He was one of a kind
she saw of him a diamond 💎
He had the looks 👀
Those she read in books 📚
He covered his heart ♥ with gold to attract she.
She, her was flattered
thought that he was the one
didn't even read through him.
An ode of him is what she didn't hear.
O be a mo rata.
As they say take time to know him,
she only skimmed through him
for his irresistible bliss of hymns.
Little did she know she was in love 💕 with a python.
O be a mo rata.
Lerato la hlakanya' ngwana bjaša
a mo iša gae go mo tsebiša batswadi.
A itshwara se-nna boka phiri ka boya bja nku.
Batswadi ba mo thabela,
bare go ngwana'bona bare 'ke wa lenyalo.'
Ayo phul'intliziyo yakhe
bengamlindelanga.
Wa baleka am'shiyela umthwalo
A son, his own heir.
Her heart left broken 💔
with no reliable token
even now she's not taken
It's an appreciation of
O be a mo rata.
