    (The imbongi is of the view that to vote is the opportunity that was once not available to many citizens. He mentions a few registered parties in Makhanda. The imbongi is reminding people about voting day on 1 November.)

    Nalo ke itshoba elingalali mbethe

    Ndiyalijiwuzisa iminyaka le phakathi kwenu

    Ndipheth’igqudu ndihlanganisa ngentla nangezantsi

    Koko anindibonanga nakaloku nje

    Yhini na madoda nazimfama sikhangele kuni?

     

    Ndinibiza ngabom nje ndenza ngabom

    Kuba sasikho mhla ngentlupheko

    Mhla yalal’indwe phezu kwenye indwe

    Kuvaliwe ilungelo lingekho

    Kungu hikihiki! Hukuhuku!

     

    Khongolose siyakuhlonipha

    Poqo sisa kuhloniphile

    Gxebe nani bandla likaBiko

    Nawo onke amahlakani enkululeko

    Njengoko niwazi nendingawabizanga ayaziwa

     

    Waaaa! Makhanda sikujonge ngamehlo amakhulu!

    Isaphila madoda iANC ingaqali kwaye isatsho

    Ithi iphethe inkululeko leyo kwantlandlolo

    Bayolatha kolatheke ke

    Hambani madoda namankazana sinijongile

     

    Nantso iEFF ulutsha lusathembile

    Ithi izibambile iyaqinisa

    Sisakhangele ke noko

    Amathemba asiwalahlanga

    Ifuthe silibonile mbombo zone

    Siyijongile i-Mind eMakhanda sakhwankqa

    Besiba ayisekho kanti umhlola asiwazanga

    Yeza ne-DA ayiqheliseli tu kwaphela

    Gqi qhaphu MCF sele ingasa qheliseli

    Kodwa umbuzo umi umi ngelithi

    Hazi iyozala nkomoni na?

     

    Umhla wokuqala kweyeNkanga ubekiwe

    Zenenjanjalo ukufaka iingadla neenqwebeba

    Ningabuyi sele nisithi

    Nye, nyek’ebhasi, ebukhweni bezinja

    Anina zingqondo!!!

     

    Tsi!
