Abale, ndipomvetsera, anzanga, ndipomvetsera
(my family/my people understand what i'm saying...
my friends, understand what i'm saying...)


Tiye tigwira, ntchito za chitukuko...
Come let us work, work for development


Tiyeni, tiyeni, tiyeni (etc..)
(Let's go, let's go...)


Nthawi ya kwana, fumbi ndi mwini
Kanthu ndi nkhama, phwiti anakwata njiwa

(The time is now, the dust is yours,
Anything (can be achieved) with effort,
The sparrow married the dove)


Nthawi ya kwana, mutu umodzi...
Susenza denga, ndipomvetsera

Abale, tiye tigwira, tigwira ntchito, za chitukuko
(The time is now, one head (pole) cannot support the roof, understand what i'm saying)


Tiyeni, tiyeni, tiyeni (etc..)
(Let's go, let's go...)
Abambo, amwene, amwali, amayi

(Father, brother, sister, mother)

Nthawi ya kwana, fumbi ndi mwini,

Kanthu ndi nkhama, phwiti anakwata njiwa,
Nthawi ya kwana, mutu umodzi...
Susenza denga, ndipomvetsera...


Tiye', tiyeni, tiye', tiyeni (etc..)
(Let's go, let's go...etc)


Anduna, satidzachiritse,
Akazembe, satidzachiritse

Anduna, satidzachiritse
Ma politician, satidzachiritse
(Government Ministers, the will not heal us,

Diplomats/Ambassadors, they will not heal us,
Politicians, they will not heal us...)
