Limpopo River song

This is a song from Zimbabwe in Ndebele. It is sung by people who have to walk from Matabeleland to work in the gold mines of South Africa, crossing the Limpopo River (ingululkudela) on the way.

Sayiwela, sayiwela
Sayiwela sibili
Sayiwela Ingulukudela
Siyofuna imali

Baphina obaba? / okoko?
Basemazulwini
Basitshiyel'indubeko
Indubeko zomhlaba
Translation

We crossed it, we crossed it
We really crossed it
We crossed Ingulukudela
To look for money

Where are those fathers? / mothers?
They are in heaven
They left us problems
These earthly difficulties
