Ayo Ayo lyrics by Phathiswa Magangane
A
Izinkanyezi z’yamoyizela ebusuku
Z’yacwebezela
Zibulisa bonke abantu

B
Ziyabulis’ (ayo ayo)
Z’yacwebezel’ (ayo ayo, yeh)
Z’yamoyizel’ (ayo, ayo)
Zikhanyisela umhlaba
Nomakuphi
Ebunzimen’
Enkatha zwen’
Zikhanyisel’ ilizwelonke

C
Vula
Awu vul’inhilziyo
Mehlo
Awu vule namehlo
Yamkela ikusasa lakho
Ligcwel’izibusiso
Ungesabi lutho
Landela izinkanyezi
Izinkanyezi zangaphakathi


D
Ngaphakathi

BRIDGE
Lizukuvusa
Vusa,
Livus’umoya
Landela izwilakho
Ayo ayo

TRANSLATED LYRICS:
A
The stars smile at night
They shine,
They greet everyone

B
They greet,
They shine,
They smile,
They light up the world
Wherever you are
In difficult times
In times of trouble
They light up the world

C
Open,
Open your heart,
Your eyes.
Open your heart.
Embrace your future,
It is full of blessings
Do not be afraid,
Follow the stars,
Your inner stars


D
Inside

BRIDGE
It will wake you up
Awaken,
Awaken your spirit
Follow what leads you
