Wawusho Kubani? (Who Were You Talking To?) Songtext
von Ladysmith Black Mambazo

Kulumelani

Ukhulumelani kabi kodwa
ngamagama abanye abantu
Yini, kodwa yini.
Siyakukhuza

Awubheke manje sebeyakuhleka
Bathi; bathi; bathi; bathi;

Nang′ uPhoshozwayo
engabe uza naziphi namhlanje

Bewuthi wona amagama abanye
Kepha Konakale elakho.

Uboshwelez' uma konakele, shwele
Uboshwelez′ uma konakele, shwele
(repeat)

Uboshwelez' uma ubonile, shwele
Uboshwelez' uma konakele, shwele
Uboshwelez′ uma ubonile, shwele

Uboshwelez′ uma konakele.

Zongena ezimnyama mfana uzobakeka.


Wawusho kubani, wawusho kubani
Zongena ezimnyama mfana uzobakeka

Wawusho kubani, wawusho kubani
Wawusho kubani loko mfana ukuthi
uzomlungisa
Wawusho kubani wena mfana ukuthi
uzomlungisa
Uyodela umakhasane mfana namhla zibulalana
Wawusho kubani, wawusho kubani
Wensizwa wawusho kubani, wawusho kubani
Ngizwile besho bethi uthe uzongilungisa
Ngizwile besho bethi uthe uzongilungisa
Wensizwa wawusho kubani, wawusho kubani
Wentombi wawusho kubani, wawusho kubani
(repeat)

Wawusho kubani, wawusho kubani
Wawusho kubani, wawusho kubani


Wawusho kubani, wawusho kubani
Yini yin' ukungiqambel′ amanga
Wensizwa wawusho kubani, wawusho kubani
Wentombi wawusho kubani, wawusho kubani
Wawusho kubani, wawusho kubani
(repeat)

Who Were You Talking To? (English translation)

Why do you scandalize
Why do you scandalize
Other peoples' names
Why, oh why
We warn you
Now everyone makes fun of you
They say; they say

"Here comes the chief gossip
What news could he be bringing today?"
You tried to scandalize others
But today it is you whose name is spoiled.

Apologize when you wrong people
Apologize when things go wrong.
(repeat)

Who were you talking to
Who were you talking to
Why did you lie about me
Who were you talking to, gentleman
Who were you talking to, lady
Why did you lie about me
Who were you talking to
Who were you talking to
(repeat)

The black bulls will come and chase
and you will run
Who were you talking to
The black bulls will come and chase
and you will run
Who were you talking to

Who were you threatening to fix
Who were you threatening to fix
The D-Day will come and we will fight
Who were you talking to
They told me that you said you will fix me
I heard it said that you said you will fix me
Who were you talking to
Who were you talking to
(repeat)

Apologize when you wrong people
Apologize when things go wrong
Apologize when you wrong people
Apologize when things go wrong.
