    The poem is about the bloodline of the D sound. It is the bloodline according to the author with unshakable bond even though it is not a perfect bloodline. This bloodline is of the maternal side. The poem is an unfinished poem. Igazi libonakalis’ukusulungeka kwentembeko. Ngaphandle kwegazi asinge kuthembi ncam. Khaninqunquthe mawethu.

    NGUMNOMBO WEGAZI
    Nguwo owakulo ma
    Makhayandini ndinixelel’unganixokisi
    Andimlu wanyama
    Ndinabo endizelwe nabo
    Benikwe isandi segama
    Nam ndazala ndenza njalo

    Kulo makhulu katot’omkhulu
    Kwamntakubo makhulu
    Sinegam’esizidla ngalo
    Elithi du du du
    Liyaduma ke lidudume
    Kuba wonk’uban’umv’esithi
    .Besisathe nqa ningazi nalo

    KwaMathwayi sino bhuti
    Olithintitha kakhulu
    Ungamva xa eza kuthetha
    Uma ixesh’elide
    Ndibon’ukuba unent’afun’ukuyitsho
    Ngeli ngeni
    Sivakal’isandi sokuthetha
    Igama lakhe nguDumile

    Ekhaya sinomzala wethu
    Esakhula sicinga ngumalume
    Olithintitha lokwenene
    Othi xa enomsind’angakwazi
    Ukuyitsho lo nto ayicingayo
    Umv’esithi ndi-ndi ndi ndi
    Sele ekuthi hele ngayiphetheyo
    kuhlabe ke xa umphazamisile

    Uyaziwa yena kweli laseRhini
    Uphakathi kwezikrelemnq’ezaziwayo
    Ngokukhalipha nobumnyama bentliziyo
    Sisiphoxo ekhayeni
    Kuba sonke saziwa ngokulunga
    Kodwa yena ngokukhohlakala
    Uyabikwa kwimizi ngemizi
    Noko nje sele ekhulile
    Ubizwa ngokuba nguDuma
    Kuba wayedumile
    Kuko konke okubi
    Kodwa xa liphelele
    Kuthiwa nguDumakude

    Ngu: Dumisa Mpupha
