Thanks to everyone who participated. Jay Bee Uma Ndlovu for all of the praise clan names, Sibusiso Baoli for suggesting an Elephant and everyone else in our bid for Ndlovu. We present to you the final name for the song (Gatjani), the artwork and a sample of our second release.
Gatjeni boya benyatsi
boya benyatsi obusoka
busombuluka...........
vele nkhosini
wena wavele enkosini
boya benyatsi obusoka
busombuluka...............
Bengingalwazi nothando
wempongo kazingelwayo................
wena waka mdukuzi
wena melusi wempilo yami.............
my heart was ice cold
i was freezing on the inside
ignited fire....
nhlitiyo yavutsa vutsisa kwethando
my heart was ice cold.........
nhlitiyo yavutsa v utsisa kethando
my heart was ice cold........

Gatjeni boya benyatsi,
buyasonga buyasombuluka,
ndlov' ezidl'ekhaya ngokweswela belusi,
mpongo ka zingelwako,
Zaze zaluswa intombi u Dumazane,
Nine bakwa Khumbul'amagwala
Nina bakwa Demazane ntombazana,
Nina bakwa Shlangu sihle,
Mthiyane
Ngokuthiy'amadoda emazibukweni,
Nina bakwa Mdubusi kaHadebe,
Gambushe!
Mpongo
Zingelwako
Madlel'enyongweni abanye bedlela esiswini.
Gatjeni!!!!!
