Dear Mtanam

Dear Mtanam

Injabulo enginayo whenever I think of you
Words aren’t enough to describe what I feel,
uNgcwethi Ka Mawakhe
Nkanyezi yam Shining Brighter than the rest,
Shining in every stage.

There are many stars but from where I stand
your light Cannot be ignored, Its like that of an illuminous jesper.
Aw Mgan' yam wangenza b’thakathaka.

Ngcwethi yam, I cannot wait for us to meet, it’s not everyone’s coming that excites me as yours.

Ubuhle oyoba ngibo buyayinqoba inhlizoyo yam.
Ngan’yam uyisbusiso kim igugu kuTatakho.
If only this ink and paper could capture my countenance as I pour out this down.

Hluka mtanam, unhesabi lutho. The God of your mother is the creator of the Heaven and Earth. Methembe uJesu mtanam. Nguye oyakuyikhomba eyakho indlela.

Please honor your Father’s legacy
Please love and take care of your brothers and sister.
And accomplishment the Assignment ka Nkulunkulu with your life.
Thats all we ask from you.

Love, Parents.
