Lyrics
Heeee!! (Heeee!!)
Zvakaoma (It is so hard)
Zvakaoma kana urikure (It is hard when you are far away)
Kure kure (Far, far away)
Moyo unoramba uri kumusha (The heart insists on staying back home)
Kure kure kure (Far, far away)
Kana shoko rauya risina kunaka ndichanzwa nani? (If bad news arrives, who will break it to me?)
Kure kure kure (Far, far away)
Dai ndine mapapiro ndaibururuka kudzoka kumusha (If only I had wings, I would fly back home)
Kure kure kure (Far, far away)
Mai vanorwara ndiri kure ndinonzwa nani? (If Mother falls sick while I'm far away, who will tell me?)
Kure kure (Far, far away)
Kure kure kure (Far, far away)
Baba vanorwara ndiri kure ndichanzwa nani? (If Father falls sick while I'm far away, who will tell me?)
Kure here, ndiri kure ndichanzwa nani? (So far away, while I am far, who will I hear from?)
Vana vanorwara ndiri kure ndichanzwa nani? (If the children fall sick while I'm far away, who will tell me?)
Madzimai vanorwara ndiri kure ndichanzwa nani? (If my wife falls sick while I'm far away, who will tell me?)
Mbuya vanorwara ndiri kuno ndichanzwa nani? (If Grandmother falls sick while I am here, who will tell me?)
Moyo wangu kani (Oh, my poor heart)
Moyo unorwadza kani (Oh, how my heart aches)
Moyo wangu kani (Oh, my poor heart)
Inochema ndega kani (Oh, I weep all by myself)
Kure kure (Far, far away)
(Chants / Claps)
Haiwa Mwari pindirai! [Pindirai!] (Oh Lord, please intervene! [Intervene!])
Chengetai mhuri yangu [Chengetaiwo!] (Protect my family! [Please protect them!])
Haiwa Mwari pindirai! [Pindirai!] (Oh Lord, please intervene! [Intervene!])
Chengetai mhuri yangu [Chengetaiwo!] (Protect my family! [Please protect them!])
Mwana anochema achida baba (The child cries longing for their father)
Mai voti urikudzoka rini? (Mother asks, "When are you returning?")
Mifananidzo yava kundipa marwadzo nekuti handisi pedyo nemi (Photographs now bring me pain because I am not close to you)
Mari yandinotsvaga iri kure, asi rudo rwemusha ruri pedyo (The money I search for is far away, but love for home is right here)
Kana ndingawana mapapiro nhasi, ndaibururuka ndodzoka kumba (If only I could get wings today, I'd fly and return home)
Aaah... (Aaah...)
Mwari, ndinemi here? [Tinemwi!] (Lord, are You with me? [We are with You!])
Mhuri yangu yakachengeteka here? [Ehe!] (Is my family safe? [Yes!])
Mwari, ndinemi here? [Tinemwi!] (Lord, are You with me? [We are with You!])
Mhuri yangu yakachengeteka here? [Ehe!] (Is my family safe? [Yes!])
Ita vachengeteke [Tinemwi!] (Keep them protected! [We are with You!])
Ndiri kuda kudzoka kumusha! (I just want to go back home!)
Dzoka kumusha-a-ah! (Return home!)
Mai vanorwara ndiri kure ndinonzwa nani? (If Mother falls sick while I'm far away, who will tell me?)
Baba vanorwara ndiri kure ndichanzwa nani? (If Father falls sick while I'm far away, who will tell me?)
Kure-e-e, ndiri kure (Far away, I am so far away)
Moyo wangu warwadza (My heart aches)
Kure-e-e (Far away)
Kure-e-e kure (Far, far away)
Hwokakanwa moyo, unoramba uri kumusha! (The heart is torn and stretched, yet it stubbornly remains back home!)
