Vuma Dlozi Lami

ngiyambonga ubaba wami mina owangikhipha ekuhluphekeni
(I'd like to thank my father who took me out of misery/poverty)
Wangitholel'umendo mina vuma dlozi lami
(He found me this marriage)

'Vuma dlozi lami' is some sort of praise to the ancestors
Thus it would be like "Praises be unto my forefathers/ ancestors or her dad coz it seems like the dad is dead vele.

Umyeni wam uyangithanda (My husband loves me),
umama wakhona uyangithanda (His mother also loves me)
Nami ngiyabathanda futhi (I love them too) (*2)

Inhliziyo yami igcwele uthando iyaphuphuma
(My heart is running over with love)
Uyamemeza umamazala len'ezintabeni
(My mother-in-law is calling out for me there on the mountains)
(Ay sengiyahamba ngiyomwashela)
(Im now going to do her washing/laundry)

Uyamemeza umamazala lene
(Ay sengiyahamba ngiyomthezeli izinkuni)
(Im now going to collect logs for her)
Uyamemeza umkhwenyana wami lene
