Lyrics - Sothe
(Folk song from South Africa)
Fiela, fiela, fiela ngwanyana,
Fiela ngwanyana o se jele matlakaleng.
Mmatswale ke tshobolo tshobolo ya mosa di
Fiela ngwanyana o se jele matlakaleng.
English Translation - Sweep
Sweep, sweep, sweep girl,
Girl, don’t eat in the dirt.
Your mother-in-law is a strict person.
Girl, don’t eat in the dirt.
