Nhetembo yeDzinza raBeta / Ishwa
🇿🇼 ChiShona (Original Verses)
Maita Beta,
Maita Ishwa,
Vanoera dzinobuda pachuru mvura yekutanga yanaya,
Dzinopa nyika mafuta nechikafu chezhizha.
Vanoita mushandirapamwe pakuvaka gomo revhu,
Pasina badza kana simbi asi mwoyo umwe,
Maita Mupfeka, varidzi vechuru chikuru,
Vari Chikomba neBuhera!
Hekanhi Gonese,
Tatenda Beta,
Zvaitwa vari Churu!
🇬🇧 English Translation
Thank you, Beta,
Thank you, Ishwa,
Who revere those emerging from the mound when the first rains fall,
Bringing rich nourishment and summer joy to the land.
Masters of teamwork who raise towering earthen mounds,
With neither hoe nor iron tool, but through one united purpose,
Thank you, Mupfeka, guardians of the great mound,
Of Chikomba and Buhera!
Hail, Gonese,
Gratitude to you, Beta,
It is accomplished, keepers of the Mound!
