Sjava Iqhawe Lyrics:
Uma uvuka ekseni
Uthi uyibuk'esbukweni
Uthi ungaboni iqhawe (qhawe)
Buyel'engubeni
You're not ready for the day
You're not ready for the day

Uma uvuka ekseni
Uthi uyibuk' esbukweni
Uthi ungaboni iqhawe (qhawe)
Buyel' engubeni
You not ready for the day
You not ready for the day

Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
Vuka

Liza namathuba amasha
Ilanga ekuseni uma liphuma
It's either you die for your dreams
Or you die in your dreams
Mawusaphila khumbula
Sek'ngenzeka noma yini

Uma uvuka ekseni into yok'qala nje
Thandaza
Ubonge impilo
Baningi abangavukanga
Wen' ulokhu uyalala la
Ulokhu uyadlala la
Wazi kanjani
Mhlabe awokgcina nci lamathuba
Vuk' ugeze uhambe uyobangena
Tshel' inhlupheko emehlweni,
Wena ungazong' jwayela
Prokid P P P P
Pressa pusha phanda, push imission

Uma uvuka ekseni
Uthi uyibuk' esbukweni
Uthi ungaboni iqhawe (qhawe)
Buyel' engubeni
You not ready for the day
You not ready for the day

Uma uvuka ekseni
Uthi uyibuk' esbukweni
Uthi ungaboni iqhawe
Buyel' engubeni
You not ready for the day
You not ready for the day

Ng'khuluma nengane la
Ngkhuluma neksasa la
Th'anginithethise
Manizwa kanjalo
Senizong'xolela

Indaba ngimdala k'dala ng'wina
Ng'luza ng'hluleka
Ulwazi ngalinikwa uNkulunkulu
Ngzocobelela
When days are dark (empilweni),
Friends are few
NamaHug aba scarce
Umunga afford' iperfume
Akekho ofuna uk'bloma nawe
Akekho ofuna uk'hlala nawe
Lapho ubona khona ukuthi
ithemba lakho
La emhlabeni likuwe,
Akekho omunye nguwe
La emhlabeni likuwe,
Akekho omunye nguwe

Indaba ngimdala k'dla ng'wina
Ng'luza ng'hluleka
Ulwazi ngalinikwa uNkulunkulu
Ngzocobelela

Uma uvuka ekseni
Uthi uyibuk' esbukweni
Uthi ungaboni iqhawe (qhawe)
Buyel' engubeni
You not ready for the day
You not ready for the day

Uma uvuka ekseni
Uthi uyibuk' esbukweni
Uthi ungaboni iqhawe (qhawe)
Buyel' engubeni
You not ready for the day
You not ready for the day
