Weh! Nduna Elah! Monna
Kgagamatso ya methleng, Thlaga ya konkrete,
Manong le di Phiri di i phula melomo, di i tatola nama ya ma loba e jelweng.
Kebo tshelo jwa matsatsi le matstsi, motabogo le metabogo ya tlala di tlaleng…
Re i tshwara di thlogo di opa, re opela di toro le fifing re thloka lesedi la go ka dibona.
Ke tlala ditlaleng tsa Toropo.

in English


Hey Man !
Yester year wonder, the concrete jungle, where vulture and foxes wipe and deny eating yesteryear’s meat, rat race up and down head ache’s singing dreams in the dark without light to see them.
Hunger amongst hurgers of the City.
