"Ke kopa o ntshwarele " (Please forgive me)



Ke kopa o ntshwarele”

O ntshwarele ngwanaka, ke kopa
O ntshwarele, kene ke sa fahle mmuso
Ka lehlabathe ke kopa o ntshwarele.
Hoba qeto qalong ya boitlamo baka
E bile le fela, leo keneng keo file lona
Lerato o le tamukantse, mantjeketlana
Ditjobo tsa pelo laka lerato ho wena
Le fofile.

O ntshwarele ngwanka, ke kopa o
Ntshwarele, leleme phate ho ala difela
Ho kgale ke ithapaladitse sa wa ngwetsi moseme,
Otlwaneng tsa bo makoti ho metse wa qhaqhawe
Mohlwa ba nnete basadi ke leqeme.

O ntshwarele ngwanaka, ke kopa o
Ntshwarele kene ke sa fahle mmuso
Ka lehlabathe, yaka menyepetsi ke kgale
E tlatsa dinokana phororo tse keleketlang
Ho epa mafatsa, fatsa la thejana ho kgaketsa
Di se wele fatshe, lefatshe la tlhahlamatjholo le  
Bohile dihloho.

O ntshwarele ngwanaka, ke kopa o
Ntshwarele empa laka lerato ho
Wena le fedile, ho ba ke kgale o
O le maphathephathe, o  phahamisitse phatla
O phathahane o sa phete phate, la moholodi lesiba o lemonya
Ka pososelo, o fetola bahlanka sa mosidi
A fetola mpshane, laka lerato ho wena le
Fedile.
